NBC

Robert Hilburn has a good take on Kanye West's truthful statements on NBC's fund-raising "concert" earlier this week. NBC shows its corporate mindset by referring to West's statement as being one person's opinion. Bull. It's the truth & NBC ought to have the balls to support West, not demean & then censor him. Another failure of an institution in America.

"'It would be most unfortunate,' the network said in a statement defending its action, 'if the efforts of the artists who participated tonight and the generosity of millions of Americans who are helping those in need are overshadowed by one person's opinion.'"
