• 153. Wow. You guys can never see anything good in anyone,can you? It will always be "so- and-so is too fat", "so-and-so is too skinny", well this time the so-and-so you have picked on is an amazing Olympic athlete. If she isn't good enough for you, who is? You should be ashamed of yourselves.

• 154. After forming my own opinion of the Shawn Johnson joke, I read a lot of the comments people posted on both sides. While there are some good points made about making fun of some people yet others are "off limits" and that doesn't seem fair... however, I feel this is not a empty headed celebrity trying in vain to have their name publicized. This is a young GIRL (not woman yet) who is competing for our country. This may have been a joke to you guys but you know that she will take it to heart and that's really sad. Plus you suck about making fun of a toddler, Suri Cruise. You're just going too far. I agree with some of the readers. I'm am deleting your site from my saved faves until you apologize. You may not care about that, but I hope with enough of us doing it, it will matter. Now #$?@! off. Susan :)

• 155. What the f...? Why did you find it necessary to try to humiliate a beautiful young girl who has a work ethic that most people don't even begin to have? I would venture to guess that there is not one person on TMZ's staff who comes close to being the person Shawn Johnson has become at a very young age. If Harvey Levin had any class, the little rat comparison would have never been released. I pity the pathetic little person whose conception this little "bit" came from. I was a fan. If this site continues this type of trash, I will never view TMZ online nor on TV. I once enjoyed this site. Now, it's beginning to sicken me. Mr. Levin, you would be wise to hire someone to review and delete trash before its released.

• 161. Time to email the FCC, sorry guys this is too much. Oh and the "sorry" is for you being such a sorry bunch of losers. Just a collective character flaw on TMZ's part I suppose, but this is unprofessional and disprespectful to our nation. Not to mention a child who has accomplished a feat only few people in this world would ever hope to accomplish. If children in the US emulate her grace and dignity, would we not be an even greater nation? You just don't get it, do you?

• 162. Shawn Johnson has been such a graceious silver meddilest and now wone a gold, she has nothing but nice to say about the olympian NatASHIA, BUT NICE THINGS. sHE DISERVES THE GOLD. SHE dose not by any means have a normal 16 year old body, but she has a body of an olympian, and the face of a young girl, which is the price you pay for the, gold, silver or bronze. I comend her for such senserity. At lest the USA is honest about the age of its athlets and dosent have to lie to win!!!!!!! Shawn is a good speeker and leave her alone. We all were ackward teens once........

• 164. Love some of these comments especially by Love to be American, Lost Reader and grassmonkey ! These mooks should get over it. Stop taking pictures of Shawn down to the basement bathroom for private "viewing", and get a sense of humor, j-off's !

• 165. I usually don't comment on much, but this comparison that you did with Shawn and the rat is something that should have stayed in your newsroom for a laugh (if anything), not put up to humiliate a 16 year old that has honored our country and literally sacrificed much of her childhood to practice and bring our country home a gold medal and more..... Geeeez, I'm wondering if we should take pictures of everyone on your crew and run them through that software and post who YOU ALL look like - it certainly wouldn't be anything like that cute little cartoon rat!! Shawn is a darling girl that will likely grow into a gorgeous woman, and one with CLASS!!! Wow - the nerve of you guys! BTW - I will join everyone else that moves on to hang out and read another entertainment site because of this consistent BS stuff that you guys are getting known for - sleezy and tacky lately!
