Politics and Vindication controlled this years Grammys. Quite shameless. Whats even more shameless is some people ranting and wanting country stations to begin playing Dixie Chicks because they won 5 grammys. The Grammys ingored the artists that resonated with the public like Carrie Underwood. The Dixie Chicks resonated with the Recording Academy. How bias and how cute!!!

You have to realize that the Grammys are controlled by the left wing media. George Soros a left wing nut pumps alot money into the media so they can support his ideology and agenda. Thats a fact.

I would like to know how the Grammy’s, an award given out for excellence in performance and recording quality, became a platform for agendas. I read your post on sales increases post-grammys, and frankly, 800% tells me no one was buying the record, currently. I felt embarrassed after watching the grammys; there were a few great performances but two of those were put on a bill with 3 people, John Mayer and John Legend. Corinne Bailey Rae…. dude, I was sleeping. The Dixie Chicks still anger many americans; thus why their last tour was lackluster at best. They still will not get played on country radio, and despite agendas from either side of the country, country’s listeners STILL do not want to hear them. And to my last recollection, I dont remember hearing them all that much on HOT AC or CHR; maybe they were big in Canada…

“Country broadcasters said that the group’s five Grammys show how out of touch the Recording Academy is from the average country fan.”

meanwhile, i’d say that the average country fan is out of touch. sorry, couldn’t resist!

“but the Grammy runaway suggests that a significant portion of the rest of the country has come around to their way of thinking.”i was a member of N.A.R.A.S.and got tired of the far left attitude and the political points of veiw.grammys are voted by n.a.r.a.s.members only.there is a ton of lobbying and phone calls and wheeling and dealing that goes on.politics and music is not new anyone remember the 60’s?had a band in 2001 called Quickchange that made the top 100 in best “new metal artist”n.a.r.a.s.has forgotten the new artist and is just another tv show with a political point of veiw.i was a member of the chicago chapter.
