His actions have made national news; you can see it on T.V. from CNN to your local news channels. The president is even rumored to have called his actions “acting like an asshole”. Kanye West taking the microphone away from Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech hasn’t won him over a lot of positive feed back. So why did he do it? Are his actions justified? I interviewed 10 people from different parts of the country to represent how the general public feels about his actions.
“I believe Kanye West should be ashamed of himself. He had no reason to do that, this is people stereotype black so much” said Mathew Horn a college student from California
“Kid look up to people they see on T.V. Kanye West is on T.V. often what kind of roll model is he representing himself as?” said Adrienna Christy a mother of three from Baltimore
“I liked his actions he stood up for what he believed in, we talk about freedom of speech in the country right? He didn’t hurt anybody he was just speaking his mind” said Brandon Knight a college student from California.
“I don’t mind what he did, I wouldn’t of done it, but in a way he was right” said Chris Calvin a Costco employer from Arizona.
“I hate what Kanye did, its unethical, and rude” said Claudia Davis a college student from New York.
“What did Taylor Swift do to Kanye West? Its not her fault she won, and its not Kanye’s job to go up on stage an express his opinion, his opinion doesn’t matter” said Courtney Miller from Texas.
“I though it was funny, but it was very rude” said Enise Mccormick a college student from New Jersey
“People care to much about this it’s not that big of a deal to me” said Jazie Shaw from Virgina.
“I have no problem with what he did, its true, the MTV awards are superficial” said Kellan Carter a basketball player from Louisiana.
“I just shook my head the whole time Kanye West is an idiot, his judgment was very poor on that night” said Keshaun Murphy a college student from Tennesse.
From the people I interviewed from around the country seven believed Kanye West was wrong for what he did, and three people either didn’t care or said his actions were justifiable. Based from the results I got its 70% (Bad move) 30%(good move or don’t care)
