CNN- Ana Nicole Smith
FOX- Ana Nicole Smith
MSNBC- Ana Nicole Smith
And on and on…

It would be nothing special to say about this bit of news, except that they were all airing at the same time! Even Anderson Cooper and Larry King had to have a special on the issue of the now dead so-called celebrity. And this is not something occasional, it happens all the time. One-note-news-reporting seems to be the easy way to fill one hour of television these days.

Fact is that many of the stories have no value whatsoever, like the one mentioned about Nicole Smith, and many others regarding insignificant people - Paris Hilton, Britney Spears - Lindsey Lohan and a host of drunken, into rehab, out of rehab - now overweight, then underweight, parties late at night and many other couldn’t-care-less bits of information.

Is this what we pay for cable? A sleuth of sameness and irrelevant stream of crap? Never mind the over the air channels, relegated to smiling faces more preoccupied with the local flow of advertisers than real news.

We are becoming a nation of ill informed people being fed the stupid antics of bimbos, drunken celebrities and feuds about who said what to whom (Trump-Rosie).

Mentioning somebody’ passing once should be more than enough, but no, we have to witness a whole week of interpretations and opinions even from people we never heard of.

What the heck is going on? Leave all that non-sense for the Enquirer and other tabloids!
