    My friends and I (even those who are non-Asian) call each other racial slurs all the time because we know we're cool with each other. But generally the Asian community is silent, so the media makes it seem as though degrading Asian-Americans with those terms is OK, when it's not. I haven't noticed many news shows using those terms, but I'll take your word for it.

    Think of it this way: would those same news shows say nigger, beaner, or cracker to other races and get away with it?
