Rap star 'Lil Wayne said in an interview with Katie Couric that quote: "Music is another form of news. Music is another form of journalism."
I protest this statement on behalf of all respectable journalists. I know our numbers have diminished — to the point of near extinction lately — but come on!
Singing the events of your life and thoughts does not make you a journalist. At best, you are a singing blogger. I would like to see 'Lil Wayne try to string an intelligent sentence together, because his lyrics don't qualify. Neither does the interview, the man sounded high.
