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.

    Would it be possible for Salon

    to write about Pinochet's death instead of Paris Hilton? Do an interview with someone interesting/funny, write a comparative analysis of freedom of speech restrictions around the world. How about Senator Gordon Smith? The new UN Ambassador? Some book or movie that's not Apocalypto? Or maybe about some other feminist concern than raising boys (now done by that alcoholic woman and debra dickerson)?

    I mean, really, you just hash over the same topics, over and over. RT writes about Madonna, Whitney Houston, now Paris Hilton. Same article over and over again.

    :)
