The Old Cannard







Every time a white man in a position of power gets caught and is punished for his potty-mouth, other white men in positions of power pose the same question: "What about rap?"

Artists have more freedom to speak than employees of news organizations. There are very good reasons why satire is protected and slander and libel are not.
