Last Thursday as the Ray Rice debacle was unfolding, CBS decided to pull Rihanna’s Thursday Night Football segment and air it this week instead. Not known for biting her tongue Rihanna lashed out on CBS via Twitter.
CBS you pulled my song last week, now you wanna slide it back in this Thursday? NO, Fuck you! Y'all are sad for penalizing me for this.

The audacity…

I have to agree with Rihanna on this one. Her also being a victim of domestic violence I feel like it was a terrible call by CBS and it felt like they were punishing her for the Ray Rice situation. It would have been a good PR move if it was Chris Brown performing but it really just made CBS look like a bunch of assholes.
