A CNN reporter asked Brian Stelter if Kanye is a master of marketing, or if he’s struggling with fame. Shelter responded, ”This feels like a PR tour, but it also feels like it is backfiring in a really embarrassing, public, even humiliating way.”

Stelter continued, ”Kanye West has been a brilliant entertainer, but right now he’s acting like a gift to racists. He is saying these sorts of ridiculous things that are usually promoted by white nationalists, by fringe groups, by fringe individuals, mostly on the internet, that promote racist ideas.”
