3. This wall to wall Anna Nicole coverage is unbelievable.
I don't ever remember such coverage for a celebrity death.

7. I haven't watched any tv today, but...
when Steve Irwin passed away last year, it was pretty much wall to wall coverage for a good week or so.

4. I think her family would disagree.
And might actually find some comfort that people are talking about this. But, that's just me.

I can think about more than one thing. Most people can.

14. I think differently
I think once the media speculation about drugs, sex, booze starts up her family will hope this stops.

Its not that we can't CARE about more than one thing its that the media can't talk about more than one thing. The death of a D list star is so NOT top o the hour news.

The only bright spot is we can stop talking about Astronaut Depends for the rest of the day (makes you wonder if NASA was working a coverup. . .)

You want true news? The secondary market for home financing is in trouble. A head guy at cisco just resigned. People are dying in Iraq.

8. I'll give them a day, after that I'll start complaining
I'm guessing her death will still be 24/7 "news" well into next week.

12. I work next door to the Hard Rock - there are still a couple of local news helicopters
flying around the hotel.

junior could do the Friday news dump today, and no one would notice.
