As we all know in 2009, Virginia native Chris Brown was involved in an incident that forever changed his image, career, and life. However he is now bouncing back with new mixtapes, music, and even movies and his fan base does not seem to be tainted one bit. As a matter of fact, thinking about how he is changing his sound up he may have even gained new fans. Recently Brown performed on the "Today Show" and fans showed up for support in record numbers, some even camped out 2 days in advanced. Apparently this show of support disgusted some people such as Fox News' Laura Ingraham. She went on her show and ranted about how sad and disgusting it was that people are supporting Chris Brown. She not only mentioned the Rihanna incident, but even went so far as to read lyrics from his songs in disgust.
In another part of her show she showed some of his fans being interviewed on the streets, and to say the least some of them sounded HORRIBLE. One stated that she didn't think the beating was that bad and others made it seem like it something that should be looked over.
I personally believe that what Chris Brown did was very extreme, however I also believe that it was almost 3 years ago and both artists have moved on with their careers and are doing very well. I also believe that Chris Brown has paid his dues and should be left alone. My question is, do you all believe that what Ms. Ingraham had to say was right or should she just get over it? Or do you believe that we as a society got over the incident too quickly?
