I am so Damn tired of the Anna Nicole Smith BS! They are beating a dead horse.

[Iwasthere]

Sick of it. Just plain sick of all the sensationalism. News just isn't news anymore. I long for the days when ABC, CBS, and NBC (not mention PBS) covered actual news.

[lonestarnot]

1. A dead blonde.

[Colobo]

3. A dead, rotten blonde

[lonestarnot]

9. Not even a natural.

[Beelzebud]

2. I know what you mean... It's getting very old.

I don't really give a flying fuck who the father was.

[RebelOne]

10. Well, I do. n/t

[unpossibles]

4. hey!

oh wait - you said horSe.

never mind...

[MonkeyFunk]

5. yeah

and they did it for about 2 hours a day, max.

Now we have a plethora of 24-hour news channels - a lot of it's just infotainment. But so far today they've covered the House vote, the President's speech, the Iranian capture of the British sailors, the tainted pet food issue... and it's barely mid-day.

6. A big ugly horse.

Every time I see her face I want to puke. God rest her tormented soul.

[JuniperLea]

8. God rest her tormented soul...

Amen to that!

[RebelOne]

11. You can hardly call her ugly.

[Iwasthere]

12. Sure can

Quite easliy... I have never found her attractive.

[L A Woman]

18. Just because YOU never found her attractive,

doesn't mean she was ugly. She was imperically attractive. It's not even debatable.

I find you to be absolutely repugnant, but for me to take the time and energy to insult you after your death would make me even more so.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

20. She was a pretty ugly human being.

Regardless of how ugly she was on the outside.

[L A Woman]

21. really? that's interesting, because...

when I met her, she was bartending to raise money for AIDS awareness at the LA gay pride festivities. She was warm, charming and a person who actually cared for the well-being of others, which is probably why you think she was such an ugly person. She could not have been more polar opposite than someone like you.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

23. Maybe we're talking about different Anna Nicole Smiths.

Because the only thing the one I'm talking about ever did was bilk elderly people out of their money to fuel her drug addiction.

[L A Woman]

29. oh you're right, we are talking about different people...

The one I'm talking about was left a bunch of money by an old man who met her on one of the many nights he spent at the strip club. She gave him the one thing he wanted in his waning years - attention from a pretty, young girl. I am unaware of any other elderly people - you use plural.

But since she never collected that money, she actually made her own living.

Too bad she didn't spend her life on an internet message board, never getting laid.

But it's OK. I understand that you have a need to hate whoever it's convenient to hate. You're a DUer!

13. Anna Nicole isn't responsible for the spectacle.

All she did was die.

I liked her and thought well of her.

[Iwasthere]

14. What did you like about her?

[L A Woman]

17. Is that picture of Ghandi supposed to represent...

irony?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

19. Well, he is claiming paternity...

[kerstin]

24. Her kindness. n/t

[L A Woman]

15. yeah, welcome to DU...

You'll find a number of fake liberals here and they always crawl out of the mud when a celebrity dies.

[kerstin]

28. Thanks for the welcome.

I've actually been here since 2004. (Guess you could say I'm more of a megareader than a megaposter.)

Thanks anyway, though.

[seriousstan]

16. Ahhh, the compassion of the DU toward a woman that had no discernible

political alliance.

[Midlodemocrat]

22. You're right!! It ticks me off so much, I think I'll start a thread on it.

:eyes:

[Iwasthere]

27. Sorry

Didn't think that one through. Emotion.

[GoneOffShore]

25. Leave Barbaro alone.

[Ioo]

26. Did she wake up? Why the News?
