For some reason...

Jay-Z: Leave Kanye alone
...
Jay-Z has wants the media to back off his pal Kanye West after the notorious outburst at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, insisting the backlash isn't justified because "he didn't kill anybody."
..."Of course it was rude because it was her moment, but that's the way he really felt… I think it was rude, but the way they're treating him … He's on the cover of every paper. He didn't kill anybody. No one got harmed. (He's) a super passionate person," Jay-Z says.

So, apparently, Jay-Z thinks the only way the negative reaction to Kanye West's antics would have been justified is for him to have, oh, strangled Taylor Swift with the mike cord after he took it from her. Wow, I just really don't know what to say to that, to the point that, right or wrong, I just reflexively agreed with one of the commenters -- "one thug defending another."
