A tin foil bonnet for the Michael Jackson trial....
How about this:
Progressives assume that ignorant bush-bots are enthralled by the convergence of fame, race & pedophilia.
Bush supporters assume that Hollywood liberal elitists are watching "one of their own"
No one's watching. The whole "ratings" thing is just a fantasy kept alive to keep advertising dollars afloat.
The 24/7 "news" channels have hours and hours and hours of crap to fill time so no one will wonder.."Hey!! Where the fuck's the news?"

1. I constantly wonder, "Hey!! Where the fuck's the news?"
It's either SHARK ATTACK!, PREGNANT WOMAN MISSING!, OBESITY IS BAAAD!, or some other news story (important, but not 24/7 wall-to-wall coverage worthy) sucking up all of the minutes which are supposed to be filled with NEWS.

I swear, it the hairdos did nothing but read the crawl, America would be much better informed!

The MSM LOVES to sensationalize and over play/recycle stories so that they don't have to produce any REAL NEWS.

4. Jackson is already found guilty, The jury is all white. Being a white
woman myself, I find White people are more prone to hang a person. When they said Jackson had an all white jury, I thought right away, he's a goner no matter what.
