Kid Rock on TMZ and benefit for the Institute for Music and Neurologic Function 9-2-09

Here is my beef. Kid Rock was in NY and gave a benefit concert for the Institute for Music and Neurologic Function. TMZ had a clip of him coming out of the venue and didn't mention or even to bother to look into why he was there. Just irritated me.

That's what I call 'drive by media'...; ▶ Reply to This

Tmz will jump on anything negative, but not bother to look up the good and he really was nice to them.; ▶ Reply to This

Wanted to be part of that moment this is what I learned. everyone loves him in Detroit, I mean everyone. It was amazing. I have a lot of military friends and trust me he has their respect. He was Detroit's Man of the Year. I have a copy. Everyone I spoke with about Kid Rock talked about the good things he did for the city etc. All the KR fans in Detroit by the way were wonderful......; ▶ Reply to This

We can compete with other auto makers but maybe not with our hands tied behind our backs ... ;); ▶ Reply to This

It would have been a google search. 2 seconds......he gives TMZ lots of film and viewers......which gives TMZ and Harvey money......trickle down up however you want to look at it.; ▶ Reply to This
