Something else?
So SNL had her on the show because Kanye West was rude to her at an awards show?
Right, so she's headlining at MSG because of Kanye West at the VMA's?
Roger You're absolutely lost on this deal.
Taylor Swift did not need West to boost her career.

this only took a second. intersting little FACT but what good are FACTS.
Hurricane Katrina happened on or about August 29th.
Kanye opens his trap during the telethon Sept. 2nd.
and this little piece of info. I guess I was right about no such thing as bad press:
"Gold Digger" is a song recorded by American rapper Kanye West featuring guest vocals by Jamie Foxx. Released as the second single from West's second album, Late Registration, "Gold Digger" peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 on September 6, 2005, becoming West's and Foxx's second number one single. Co-produced with Jon Brion, the song contains an interpolation of Ray Charles' "I Got a Woman" by Foxx.
The single broke a record for the most digital downloads in a week [1], selling over 80,000 digital downloads, and was also the fastest selling digital download of all time; both records have since been broken. It was 2005's second-longest running number one on the Billboard Hot 100 at ten weeks, behind Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together". "Gold Digger" was nominated for Record of the Year at the 2006 Grammy Awards (losing to Green Day's "Boulevard of Broken Dreams") and won the award for Best Rap Solo Performance. The song lists at number 49 on Billboard magazine's All Time Top 100.[2] The song was voted number 20 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop.
yup. fast loaded digital download in one week of all time at the time of release

One more something else for Taylor Swift.
LAST season [season prior to this VMA dust-up] young Miss Swift was a guest star on an episode of a very popular CSI: Las Vegas.
The role was not a minor cameo one.
West not needed at all.

You're on Offbeat where we (all inclusive) or morons or geniuses (you pick).
For MTV, MSNBC, etc.-- networks NOT 'over-the-air' the delay is voluntary.
For FCC regulation, their domain ---

However, the FCC's regulatory domain with respect to indecency remains restricted to the public airwaves, notably VHF and UHF television and AM/FM radio.

OK so you show how his big mouth helped HIS sales, cuz, gee a black guy saying Bush hates black people boosted sales of a rap CD, yeah go figure...
How does this prove his idiocy helped Swift?
She was a star long before the VMA award and she is headlining MSG. She didn't just become popular enough to headline MSG because of Kanye West. She git to host SNL because she's 19 and headlining MSG.
This is simple stuff Rog..........
