Barack Obama Calls Kanye West A Jackass (Audio)

TMZ scored the audio of the Commander In Chief calling Kanye West a jackass. Congratulations. Now, for the real matter at hand. So far in my career, I’ve been entrusted with enough “off-the-record” statements to write a tell all. As a journalist, it’s disheartening that a reporter betrayed the president’s trust and transcribed what he said via Twitter. Is anything sacred these days? Stop letting your fingers do the talking, people.

    How long before Obama issues an apology to Kanye? Seriously though the snitching level is at a all time high thanks to Twitter.

    For real. First Fab snitching on T-Pain & now this. Twitter is the devil.

    hahahah that was hilarious

    Twitter nor any other information vehicle is not the devil. It is a lack of reporter integrity that is loatheable in this situation. I too have been fortunate enough to have interviewees say things in confidence–and know they won’t be exploited for the sake of headline-grabbing. Shame on Terry Moran and or whomever leaked that information.

    Yep. Here’s another: cocksucka, beat it!

    lol…. cool. but you’re still sort of like an intern. don’t front. you’re on the right track though. you should just start your own blog and shine by yourself. Anyone can blog. You have a more likable personality than YN too. And a better writing style than YN but I guess that’s why he got you there in the first place. He’s experienced to know that you hire up. Hopefully you’ll get learn that before you’re burned out and disillusioned and start writing like an angry old man that missed the boat and is out breath swimming from the port trying to catch up to it. Good luck little homie.

  • wow obama

    obama shouldnt ever share his opinion with the world as america’s first black president because any slip people will come after u N as far as a president goes, i dont think he shoulda said anything off or on camera about the situation, he shoulda kept it civilized, i believe he should apologize to kanye even though it wasnt meant for the public, so what, it happened and just like kanye did to taylor, obama needs to do the same to kanye! LONG LIVE KANYE THOUGH, def drunk his gully juice lmaoooooooooo
