Hilary Rosen Defeated at Oxford Union

yogi writes "Oxford University Students' Union had a debate last Thursday, titled This House believes that 'the free music mentality is a threat to the future of music.'. Ordinarily, not too exciting, but since it is the Oxford Union, they get Hilary Rosen to speak. She lost the debate, and had to have pictures like this taken. Read the writeup at NTK, or a more detailed one here. I especially like the bit where she asked all the file downloaders whether it made them buy more music."

So, will the real Shady please stand up?
And put one of those fingers on each hand up?
And be proud to be outta your mind and outta control
and one more time, loud as you can, how does it go?

Indeed. I would have looked miffed too, and probably would have sat down, but not before singing "I'M SORRY MAMA <offkey> I DIDNT MEAN TO HURT YOO<offkey>OOOUUUU<offkey>. I DIDNT MEAN TO MAKE YOU CRY BUT TONIGHT, IM CLEANING OUT MY CL<offkey>O<offkey>SET." Then again, that is what I have been programmed to say by my radio.
