Bill O'Reilly tried to take it to task, but his guest (former Vibe writer) Kevin Powell used O'Reilly's tactic of never letting the other get in a word in edgewise against him.

I actually saw the O'Reilly interview you speak of and Mr. Powell made no good points. He actually believed that this video could make a difference in the election. In my opinion, young individuals that would be influenced by this sort of video probably don't vote.

I could go so many ways with that remark, but why bother? Instead, I will just offer this:

Wow, I got chills from that video. I always liked Eminem but my respect for him just doubled.

Kevin Powell, to me, beat around the bush and kept repeating the same thing about Eminem having the right as an entertainer to make a political stance. But still, Bill O'Reilly's ignorance and stubborness regarding rap and hip-hop is so ridiculous that I just can't entertain anything he says about the matter.

I can't stand rap or hip-hop in general.
I can't stand Eminem in particular.
I loved the "Mosh" video.

I bet not.

I could go the way of the other posters in this thread and ask you to explain this, but I won't.
Instead, I will say that that is exactly THE POINT. I think that a lot of the young voters who may not have been paying attention to politics may take a second look after seeing this video. This goes for both sides -- some kids will be motivated by Eminem's stand against Bush, others will be incensed by it. Either way, if it gets them to the polls I'm all for it.

why does he need to have to back it up? i thought his comment referred to the fact a lot of Eminem's fan base is under 18. of course, the are tons of fans over 18 and are voting. and i must admit that i took the video to heart. i just do not understand why everyone is jumping over phigamucsb.
it was just a comment people. now please do not jump all over me.
