    Another reason why I let my premium membership lapse...

    Bad enough that a news organization seems to take the weekends off (especially since I can't... sour grapes n all that), but devoting space to this classless piece of shit... damn.

    If you want to do this tabloid shit, and shit it is, bring back The Fix and put it in there. At least we knew what was coming if it was in the Fix, and could be avoided if desired. And it is desired.

    MSNBC, CNN... don't get me wrong, all the media whores are banded together in this.

    In case anyone was wondering, I get my news from NPR, and so far, I have only heard about 15 seconds about Paris there. Which is, I suppose, about all she is worth, side-show value-wise.
