What Is Wrong With These People?

CNN screen shot

This is what CNN thought was breaking news at 6:53PM EST today – a group of entertainers about to receive trophies were entering the hall where the trophies were to be handed out.

And the MSM wonders why people are losing interest in their product.

It’s either what they think we want, or what they want us to be interested in. Personally, I’ve never understood why anybody not actually up for one of the awards gives a damn. I think I’ve watched maybe 20 minutes of an Oscar ceremony in my entire life, and that was at least two decades ago. I’ve got more important things to do tonight than sit around watching the “beautiful people” looking vapid–like negotiating icy roads so I can go read Scripture at the 9 p.m. Mass.

Cleaning my bathroom is much more important, even if I had a TV.

Wanna come up and clean mine? I’m not sure I’m going to get around to housecleaning before I go to DC on Wednesday.

Michael, I have driven on icy roads and don’t need to repeat the experiment, sorry.

Shame on CNN….distracting us from the Anna Nicole saga with such trivial pursuits.

You’re right, Andante, I almost forgot about the “real” priorities.

Well, in CNN’s defense (it was on at the Chinese restaurant where I had lunch today), they were running stories about the Oscars and the custody battle over Anna Nicole Smith’s remains this afternoon.

Ah, but it’s been hours since they have had a report on Britney’s rehab status.
