There is some truth in what Former President Carter stated in reference to the media. The media does somewhat contain subtle racism within ambiguous comments. As far as Kanye's outburst, he has the right to state his opinion just as the media has their authority to state how they feel about the situation. The media is sort of displaying a slanderous story. However, looking at Kanye's previous outbursts, the media has alot against him. Overall, everyone has a right to their individual opinion.

  2. Slander is verbal defamation, or when somebody verbally hurts another persons reputation. I really do feel that it is slanderous, because the media is mercilessly criticizing Kanye West with no regard to his reputation. Although his actions were wrong, immature, and disrespectful, a person does not deserve to be talked about in such a spiteful manner. The situation was not all that serious.
