"Study finds death of Anna Nicole Smith consumed 50 per cent of all cable news air time last week. Stick a fork in its ass, this civilization is done."This does seem excessive for a single big-titted woman. (While millions starve! Myself potentially amongst them, come to think of it.*) On the other hand, if the news were simply a round-up of all the Haitians who died in mudslides on a given day no one would watch it.
