So long, Paris

For years we've been paralyzed in the tractor beam of her brainless celebrity. Now it's time to kiss the creepy dollie goodbye.

    Reply on Goodby Paris

    I agree about the news media covering her as much as they do as I certainly don't consider her newsworthy. However, I don't have to watch the news segment do I.

    I think it is a shame how our news media is turning into nothing more than the National Enquirer. They don't seem to cover any stories that are really news relevant (anyway to me) or stories that require some good investigative work and techniques but easy stories such as ship kidnappings that go on for months, etc.

    Greta, Nancy, several MSNBC programs not news but sensationalism type stories. However, I guess the ratings are calling for it so maybe this is what America wants instead of important news.

    It also amazes me that Paris is called an actress. If I was a legitmate movie actor or actress, I would rather resent this.
