WATCH YOUR BACK, GOLDBERG.

Betsy Woodruff of National Review on how Macklemore won a Grammy because homos:
Far be it from me to assume there’s any rhyme or reason behind who wins Grammys (ha! not doing that).
The very next goddamn sentence:
But it’s hard not to look at this situation and wonder if the Grammys put politics before music.
This breathtaking display of self-unawareness, along with her ridiculous Lena Dunham columns, makes Woodruff the front-runner to replace Jonah Goldberg as the Corporal Agarn of NR's culture war troops.

Anyway I don't know what she's complaining about; one might as easily argue that Daft Punk's big night is a victory for the Singularity.

UPDATE. Hear hear, M. Krebs in comments: "Actually it's hard not to wonder if there's anything the Grammys don't put before music."

Plus, Formerly_Nom_De_Plume:
I won’t be talking about Ryan Lewis at all here because first, I don’t know anything about him 
lost out to someone named Ariana Grande about whom I know nothing 
Someone with a better grasp of hip-hop history than I (read: someone with any grasp of it at all, really) 
(And if this piece already exists, can someone send it to me?)
Her training is complete. Jonah watch his back? More like congratulate himself on a job well done.
