I NEVER POST IN BLOGS! but this is a very important thing that Budden is doing. Mainly for being accountable for his actions, saying his is embarrassed by it and so on. Something i have always respected about Joey, is he doesnt have a problem being transparent, and having hindsight!

Vlad TV is ran by a white dude that knows that black ignorance, conflict and death sells, just like anything else negative in this world, and could care less about the outcome. Vlad is not Anderson Cooper, hell he’s hardly your local newspaper journalist. He is at most a gossip columnist.

I’m glad Joe took it there, with the funeral talk, because people need to think in extremes, no one thinks that way until it actually goes down.

good discussion

The real question is dig ran call Vlad because he didn’t know how to work a video camera or did Vlad call Ran and be like “yo let me be the FIRST!”

I hear u Joe but people need to be held accountable for their own actions. You can’t blame the person holding the camera for what YOU do in front of it. Yes YOU should feel like an asshole for what u put up on joe budden tv because those were your ACTIONS. Not the random camera guy who taped it, especially if he had nothing else to do with it. At the end of the day journalism is about STORIES and just like YOU learned something very valuable in all this so did all the (smart) people who watched it. I would argue that that lesson alone gives this whole back n forth bullshit some journalistic merit. I’m not condoning the baffoonery im just sayin u can’t blame vlad and say it had no journalistic merit. He didn’t create a story he covered it

@Trilogy, I don’t think you can really blame Joe B for starting it. Yes, he said he’s a Murcielago and Ransom was a Honda but I chalk that up to the usual competitive shit talking. Ransom was the one who took it to the next level with “Rah rah rah, he can’t come to the block, he’s a faggot, he’s a homo, his girl’s a ho, rabble rabble…”. THAT’S when Joe went to his block. So yea, Joey was an idiot for participating and Vlad was just being a instigator BUT Joe’s card was pulled on the real side so what else would he have done?

…On the video, he really made Vlad sound stupid. VladTv from Ran’s funeral? Fuck outta here. Interviewing artist and gathering & distributing information is journalism; taping Ransom smacking a random dude who has nothing to do with the situation IS NOT JOURNALISM. Vlad lost this one. On the flip side, Budden outside of Applebees with a random homeboy talking shit isn’t journalism either BUT nobody ever claimed it to be.
