I know nothing about Kanye other than he is in the music business, has had some mental health issues, and is married to a wealthy reality star. the OP is right. If white TV commentators had called Kanye a "token negro", laughed at his past mental health issues, or said "Kanye west is what happens when negroes don't read", their white asses would be unemployed. But those same words and behavior were acceptable for three black commentators on CNN.

So, then, why does your side get so outraged when other people "who think for themselves" ( like DiNero, Taylor Swift, etc) come out and voice THEIR opinion ? There have been a multitude of threads started by Trump supporters who are upset because some celebrity had the gall to say something negative about Trump !


Can't have it both ways, bud.

Thumbs down CNN calls Kayne West a "token negro" and "dumb negro"

I'd imagine that if something like this was said on Fox News, everyone's TV would explode with the leftist rage. But there's that completely double standard at play.

If you still watch CNN and believe it without question, they are playing your for sure.

Left motto....
"We are a political monoculture that's intolerant of different views"

I wouldn't expect anything different from CNN. Par for the course.
