Sounds like softball media questioning, if anything. Pretty embarrassing. Far cry from investigative journalism.

This is not the politics board, so I'll drop it. Not the place to rant.

It was off-the-record; he was just joking around with the WHPC.

There is no doubt that Haggard, Cash, Nelson, etc. were country in their own time, but that time has come and gone. Country music has evolved, obviously, and KC, Brad Paisley, and yes, Taylor Swift are examples of what country music is today.

If evolved means "turned into absolute unlistenable shit" well then yes, it certainly has evolved.

EW, you need to come up to Clarion for homecoming because the one bar plays exactly all that stuff you dig, all day. It's awesome.

I'm just using it as an example of why "Person X is just being Person X" is an illogical justification for anything.)

OJ's a douche. I know everyone is on a different topic, but back to Kanye West for a second. I don't agree with what he did, but give the guy a break. He was shit faced. How many of us have been shit faced before and acted in a way we regretted later?

Sure, alot of people have.

However, we are not on TV.

We are also not celebrities.

The whole "give him a break" thing goes out the window when dumb things are done in public and you are a person who is considered to be famous.

I'm aware of that, and I don't agree with what he did. I believe if he had issues with that chick winning the award he should have addressed it with the decision maker, not her, because it wasn't her decision. I'm just saying that the same people bitching about his actions are the same people who have acted in the same way (in public), after having too much to drink. I know, because I've done it on a few occasions myself. With this whole celeb and tv thing, a lot of the news media who are covering this and other things news related are getting to the point where they're "making" the news, not telling it. They're more like entertainers themselves to me. Rush is a good example of that.

How was it bitchy? She was just saying she disagreed with your assessment of their music.
