I'm workin on a paper on racial stereotypes in American media. The first thing that came to mind was this (http://maddox.xmission.com/cop_movie.html) rant by Maddox. I obviously wouldn't use this for any type of hardcore facts or serious research, but maybe just to lighten the paper up a little with his observations, which are pretty on the money in this case. Is it ok to use him as a source considering my teacher is borderline femenist?

You can cite anyone's opinions.

I had to read femenist 3 times to realize that you meant feminist. I've never, ever, seen that typo.

If this paper is in any way important, no. If its high school or just some intro-level throwaway course, then sure.
