"It’s worth looking at how last night’s appearance was reported, because hey, what were we just saying about coded language? Gawker led with an edited version of the interview that seemed to go out of its way to make West look as silly as possible, doing exactly what West was complaining about Kimmel doing — taking certain comments out of context. It came with observations about West mispronouncing “Zara” and pointing out that he apparently had something at the side of his mouth for much of the interview. And the headline? “Here’s Kanye West Ranting for Over Eight Minutes Straight on Kimmel.”

Let’s have a toast for a douchebags! Let’s have a toast for the assholes! Because, actually, West didn’t “rant for over eight minutes straight.” He spoke at length on various topics, becoming heated at times, but generally in a manner that was quite personable. If it were anyone else, we’d call it “speaking out” or “being passionate.” But no, it’s Kanye West, so it’s “ranting.”"
