NBC

Go figure that NBC's Concert for hurricane relief got turned into a bush bashing thanks to Kanye West. It wasn't so much that the Bush bashing upset me, but that something that was supposed to be to help others and not meant to be a political view got turned into just that. Then, instead of NBC editing it before it was retelevised everywhere else they simply released a press release saying:

"Tonight's telecast was a live television event wrought with emotion. Kanye West departed from the scripted comments that were prepared for him and his opinions in no way represent the views of the networks. It would be most unfortunate 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."

According to to other bloggers on here the comments were edited somewhat but people still go the just of it.

I guess we are at a point in society that technology like they use for the superbowl has to be improvised even for such occasions as a telethon. I am very ashamed. Then to read that they did use a delay but the person in charge was not doing their job is even sadder.
