Penn: verbose gasbag; West: concise and to the point (and censored)

By now, you’ve probably seen Kanye West’s NBC telethon outburst, even though it was censored from the West Coast feed. (If you haven’t seen it, get Windows Media and go here.)

Surprised the gross bathroom thing didn’t get more attention, but maybe people had stopped reading by then.
