I think the joke would have been funny in 2011.. She's referring to a Gaga which had all the attention on her because of her outfits, her craziness, et cetera.. Not really the case anymore, she's being focused on because of her talent and of the cause she's supporting. Fey is just stuck with this image of Gaga that is not a reality anymore, which makes the joke unfunny..

Way too over sensitive, she's not insulting sexual assault victims. That's not the way she meant it.

When I read the comment (I read it before I heard it), I actually thought it was a really cheap joke that actually did in a way insult Gaga (because of the quote Fey played her joke off). I also thought the people affected by this issue who have been inspired to come out and share their trauma and heal might not exactly laugh at it considering their experiences and what Gaga's statement re: TIHTY entails. It's anecdotal. These survivors have come forward and opened up because Gaga did the same through song and confession - being told 'O RLY? You've been hiding? Rly' (even in a joking way) might upset them.. the first time I read it, this was my reaction. I understood what Fey was saying perfectly, but I also interpreted in the way I did. It's definitely not wrong of me to do so. 

The title of my thread is not incorrect (I didn't state it as fact), nor is it attention seeking. Why would I possibly need the attention of people on here? I'm not trying to sell anything. :toofunny:

THIS is the first thing people read when they look at this thread. How do you not see that this isn't true? We even have the audio now, you can both see and hear that that is obviously not the case. Just because you put a question mark at the end there doesn't make it less misleading.

Did you not read the part where I explained that I actually thought what Tina said read as a sort of insult though? I'm not misleading anyone. I didn't state it as fact. I will not change it. I really can't be bothered. 

You think that I'm out to mislead, then you've misunderstood me.
