Grammy question: Ludacris/Bill O'Reilly
Why did Ludacris thank Bill O'Reilly??? I ignore Bill so I must have missed something there.

1. Bill wanted Pepsi to drop Luda from an ad. And they did.

4. I would suspect because...
O'Stumblebum's "boycott" did nothing but help Ludacris' career. Law of Unintended Effects and all that good stuff.

2. IIRC, O'Reilly didn't like his songs & tried to start a hate campaign against him. Why Oprah 'tho?

5. Oprah wouldn't give him and some other rap artists time on her show because of their
misogynistic lyrics.
