A lot of high-minded folk don’t think we should be paying so much attention to celebrities. They say it takes away from the discussion of important things in the world, like the Downing Street Memo. (This paper, by the way, was the first American paper to mention its existence, back on May 6. Unfortunately, we didn’t refer to it as the Downing Street Memo, opting instead for the more piquant phrasing “some memo.” And thus will the Nexis monkeys never know our fame.) Neil Cavuto himself opined on FOX News that the president was having a hard time persuading voters to support his Social Security privatization because the media was focused on Michael Jackson instead. Neil Cavuto said this not once, but more than once! No, Neil. People aren’t supporting the president’s Social Security privatization because the more they learn of it, the more they think it stinks—which is why the corporatist media is distracting them from it with Michael Jackson. People aren’t learning of the Downing Street Memo because of Michael Jackson. I’m pretty sure the thing you’re complaining of is due to Bill Clinton, and how he raped Hillary to conceive Chelsea and all. Please get your liberal media conspiracies straight!
