This probably belongs more on the Politics and O/T board, but oh well...... I don't mind reading about Paris Hilton's trials and tribulations. As much as I hate to admit it, I like reading about others misfortunes. I find it entertaining, much like watching a train wreck. What I DO NOT LIKE about the whole affair is that everytime there's a new story about Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole Smith, etc, it is treated as NEWS. Right now, Paris Hilton getting released from jail is a top story on AOL. When she was put in jail, it was the headline story on CNN. That's not right. Those stories are entertainment, not news. News is something that has an impact on the country or the world. Famine, strife, wars, treaties, storms, political meetings, scientific advances--these thigns are all news. Some dim-witted socialite getting let out of jail is not news, its entertainment. I wish the news outlets like CNN would learn the difference.
