    Lemmee deconstruct what Doe is trying to say: Kanye (a black man) shat all over Taylor (a white chick) in order to praise Beyonce (a black chick). So it is a racist incident.

    Could well be. He clearly behaved like a prize jerk.

    Interesting. Would your opinion remain the same if it had been, say, Alan Jackson running up and doing that to Beyonce saying that Swift had the best video?

    Do you think that you can deconstruct racism simply by making tit for tat arguments everytime the subject is brought up, JD?

    Whether I can or whether I can't or whether I think I can or whether I think I can't is irrelevant to this discussion.

    I'm not saying it is a racist incident, but I do think the question should be addressed. I think there is a blatant double standard.

    I think FOX took a spin on the story that was not necessary to stir up some shit.

    Apples and Oranges.....

    MTV has a history of encouraging outrageous behavior to get ratings..... or am I the only one who remembers the first one in which Madonna humped the stage during 'Like A Virgin"

    MTV could have ushered his ass out the door when he started swigging Hennessy on the carpet.......

    Besides how Mr. West has handled himself in the throes is more revealing then his drunken outburst.......boy needs to grow up!

    you have an odd take on the meaning of the word "irrelevant", JD.

    My "take" coincides with the dictionary's.

    Actually, I think West is going to take some time off to reflect as he told with his interview with Leno.

    I thought about West today and his mother dying. Grief can be relentless and with his career like it has been

    I think he would do good for some time out.
