The Village Voice Media executive editor's
Friday night utterance of the "n-word" continues to be discussed in media circles and on the internet. Maricopa County attorney Andrew Thomas, who
may be sued by
Phoenix New Times soon, criticized Lacey's comments at a press conference on Tuesday, saying "this should be the Don Imus moment for
Arizona's media," KTVK-TV reports. KTVK-TV also has the
full video of the
acceptance speech in which the offending comment was made. And
Philadelphia City Paper publisher Paul Curci is weighing in as well, calling Lacey's comments "vicious and hateful" in
an incensed letter to AAN News.
