Frailty

It's icky to make news stories out of evidence that famous people are infidels, but every time I read one -- example #1, example #2 -- I feel mildly comforted on some level. I despise these stories and half-like them at the same time.

Recap: Slate's Mickey Kaus has printed yesterday morning's memo from L.A. Times editor Tony Pierce which noted that "because the only source [on the John Edwards-Rielle Hunter affair] has been the National Enquirer, we have decided not to cover the rumors or salacious speculations, so I am asking you all not to blog about this topic until further notified." The Enquirer is apparently intending to publish photos of Edwards running away from photographers when they ambushed him at the Beverly Wilshire earlier this week.

Re the Edwards story, here's a link to an article in LA OBSERVED, where LOS ANGELES TIMES bloggers have been told to lay off covering it:

Isn't it obvious that Matthew Broderick is gayer than Kevin Spacey? Besides, I don't think there's a straight man on the planet who'd want his cock anywhere near Sarah Jessica Parker.

The hypocrisy is truly breathtaking. Here's an LA Times article about the Rush Limbaugh/Oxycontin scandal CITING the National Enquirer as a source!!!

Hey George Prager, do you really think its wise to go into the candidates or in this case the candidates wives' past lives with regard to drugs? Wasn't Obama slinging back in the day?

Gatrios, this stuff isn't rumor or innuendo.

P.S. Stephe96's hypocrisy is truly breathtaking! Here's the National Enquirer on Bush's Booze Crisis! The Globe on Laura's Claw Marks! The National Examiner on Bush Marriage Over! (yes, it's a Great Orange Satan link, but the point is valid)

OK, Cindy McCain is a horrible horrible person. Guilty as charged. Obama was a crack dealer. Obama willingy put drugs into the hands of teenagers. Also, Obama would trade sexual favors with men for payment. Ever notice what a masculine, man like, presence Obama's wife has? Obama has that feminine quality to him when he speaks. I'm just saying....

pVice, if Matthew doesn't want her anymore, I will gladly take her off his hands and any other body parts he desn't want her near. Parker is much, much hotter than most of those TMZ skanks clods drool over.

What happened to reporters? Aren't they supposed to be about finding truth and finding stories? Now they have an agenda. Real sad. And people wonder why print journo is a dying industry.
