I woke up about 0600 and I posted the story about Kanye West at the MTV awards. I then went to bed about 0900 and woke up at 1100. I noticed 24 comments on Howard’s Notebook. That was a lot of comments on one subject for Howard’s Notebook. In fact it was a lot of comments even for ShowMeBlog in such a short amount of time.
I then started reading the comments. Here is one of the comments:
“It is so obvious,I won't stick up for this moron because he wasn't taught manners. Remember when Janet had her clothing problem? This is much worse and look where it is, on another TV show. Yes TV show and show is all it is. I'm almost 60 and white and I like some Rap, not all but some. This had nothing to do with the Entertainment but the total disrespect of another human beings triumphant winning of an award.
Just don't buy his CD's and that will hurt him more than throwing out insults at a bigot who could actually care less. It could have something to do with the outright racist attitude Americans are being forced to endure by the Raunchie Right who only knows how to destroy rather than build. He probably hates Country Music, which in my opinion will outlast any Rap Music.
Beyonce brought a tear to my eye with her unselfish jesture to Swift, she made herself many friends in and out of Rap. Someone should tell him how to spell Cain as in Cain slew Able, well this Kanye isn't able to slay anyone with his anti-country ignorance. He just gives those racist Right wingnutz something else to jump on and create more racial problems for our country. Ignorant Basterds!”
CNN listed Howard’s Notebook under the Kanye West grabs mic at MTV awards story. CNN has a section on their site “From the Blogs” and they list some comment from one to three blogs.
ShowMeBlog has been listed many times. I think this is the first time for Howard’s Notebook. I noticed 24 comments on my post about the MTV story. I then went and did a check of the stats for Howard’s Notebook and saw that there were 60 people on Howard’s Notebook reading the post. I knew something was going on then…. So I checked and found that CNN had linked to my blog.
It is nice to get the traffic but I suspect they read the post and some comment and then they are gone. My dream is for them to look around and decided they like the blog and bookmark it and come back and read it often.
