From Attytood: BREAKING NEWS: Young Woman meets Sudden, Tragic Death
And yes, this is a commentary on You-Know-Who, and the media that is covering her at the moment. But not in the way you think.

All I can add is, I expect the jerks at "The Insider" and "Entertainment Tonight" to act this way, but to see the supposedly serious news media doing the same is sad. Even if they "break the fourth wall" and admit that they're covering this woman just because she is famous.

3. "Serious news media" has become an oxymoron
