I think it is. No matter what the case is degrading women is wrong point blank. But I believe they are two completely different fields. Obviously it is condoned within Hip-Hop and in other music as well. But on a nationally syndicated show, which was also broadcasted on MSNBC. That's completely different. You expect to turn on a rap record and hear **** like that. You don't turn on a radio station to hear someone degrade women for no reason at all, that he doesn't personally know.

Besides in rap most of the time there not even talking about a specific female that they know. There usually just speaking in general. Instead of just watching a high light of basketball for a few seconds, and then procaliming the women as hoes.


Here's links to the various debates about it....

Hip Hop has nothing to do with his remarks towards those women...He spoke his words so he must live with them..I don't think he should have gotten fired because there are thousand more who hold top position throughout the US that have said something like that and are still running ****..But hey, I don't call the shots..

I don't think it was the people who worked with him that called for his firing. I think it was the pressure from the people who sponsor the show.
