To be fair, Howe started it, probably thought she was an easy target. But no, just a big mouth. Like two very loud and annoying brick walls having a fight.

Joan Rivers is just a b*tch just like other men hating women such as Germaine Greer.

And she looks like she's made out of plastic.

Not a good decision on the guests unless you are indeed looking for a fight considering Rivers isn't very pc and Howe could pick a fight in an empty room and probably find about 6 racists as well. Funny though

Not to mention ridiculous.

And given the context, I rather suspect that his "no she's not a racist" comment was said in a sarcastic tone, which is akin to saying she is.

It was obviously in the context of skin colour though.

No-one got my TMWRNJ joke :(

He didn't call her racist, he said the word "black" offended her, which is quite separate altogether.

Yeah, but there was no need to turn it into an argument.

From the quotes given, Rivers said nothing remotely racist. If anything, it was Purves' comments that Howe disagreed with, so why he started arguing with Rivers is questionable at best.

I've seen Howe on TV a few times, and he does have a tendency to provoke things. I think the 'chip on the shoulder' comment was quite accurate.

Well, considering they were talking about race...

but yeah, that's silly.

I think it's a classic example of how some people can manage to turn anything in to a race argument.

Well that's a calm and calculated way to get a celebrity to give your film some free publicity, she certainly rose to the bait there and really exploded with some rather childish language.
