Sharon Stone Is Being Sued for Skipping an Anti-Chevron Protest

[MADem]

1. Looks like Ecuador hired a pretty incompetent PR firm to press their case.

I mean, really--Sharon Stone? Danny Glover? Mia Farrow? Yeah, they'll get the locals excited...not. They're all over the hill (and so am I--it takes one to know one) and are not without personal issues that are distracting. Well, maybe if they were starring in a remake of Cocoon or something, set in the Amazon, they could find a way to make it work--but that's not happening, either.

. And hiring fake protesters? It's not hard to find REAL people who take issue with some of the practices of oil companies--who doesn't think polluting the Amazon is a BAD idea?

Ecuador just paid a "PR" company a lot of money to make a huge mess of something that should have been easy. It also should have had a more youthful focus, IMO. Get those "Beliebers" out there screaming and you might have some traction.

Bizarre doesn't begin to describe this complete cluster! Someone's gettin' rich, though--and it ain't the poor bums affected by the pollution, either.
