It’s pretty easy for me to come up with at least one reason a day that Bill O’Reilly sucks, thanks to Keith Olberman, but when someone, like, say, Nah Right gives me a reason, I really pounce. Here he is making fun of Nas for “peddling the ‘N’ word to children.” I won’t bother to refute his arguments because they are self-evidently dumb.
But you know what I really hate? The way that conservatives have turned the whole “N word” thing around on black people. As if Bill O’Reilly is the sanctimonious protector of race rights and Nas hates black people because he uses the “N word.” Because Fox News isn’t racist. Anyway, here’s a little comedic gem of Bill O waxing poetic about Nas’ inability to sell records and all the ways in which this is promotion for his album. I’m sure it doesn’t hurt, Bill, but why are you so upset? Is it because he uses the “N word?” Or because he eviscerates you on that album?

hahaha.
awesome post. it’s amazing how ridiculously stupid the right wing media is, especially oreilly.
i cant help but be reminded of that tv anchor character in V for Vendetta every time I hear mention of him.
as justin timberlake once said, “what goes around…”
also, i like your posts best when you make connections between the music worl and the larger culture that shapes/is shaped by it.
theyre really quite insightful.
thanks.

What a douche. I seriously don’t understand why that guy gets to have a job still.
Hey Kyle, The Dark Knight just came out today in South Africa. And I have to say, you were right. Unnecessarily obtuse, but right.
