I don't care

[ksmith]

...about Britney Spears. Passed out at a nightclub. Snatch shots. D-I-V-O-R-C-E. Fed-Ex. With Paris. Without Paris. I have heard all these terms--well, except 'snatch shot,' which is undeniably crude**, but shorter and more to the point than the twee "photographed without her panties"--from adults who should be ashamed of themselves for reporting this tripe. I change the station, and There She Is Again.

Showing a story about her, followed by a Cialis commercial, takes real timing.

Keith Olbermann--I know it's a story your producers force you to cover. You could at least wear a fake nose during that part of the newscast in order to hide your identity.

They say "The Public Wants To Know." Who is this Public of which they speak? No one I know *cares*. And they're smart, well-informed folk. With televisions.

For the record, I also don't care about Paris, Lindsay, Brangelina, who Jennifer is kissing now, or American Idol in any way, shape, or form. One of my 2007 resolutions is to continue this trend.

**I have moments of undeniable crudity. I used to shock my dad, the Marine. I hide it until I can't stand it anymore. I have been called "tasteless" in the past. I will likely, at some point, be called "tasteless" in the future.

Bwahaha!

I'm with you and will add Survivor and the rest of the reality TV offerings to the list of "Don't care about at all".

I was going to go back and add Survivor.

Don't people realize that those people are the last folks you'd want with you on a desert island?

I know, I'm looking at it *realistically*. Can't have that interfering with the reality, can we?
