5. But Bush admin affects global warming policies, thus Guckert story
Edited on Tue Feb-15-05 05:42 PM by Hissyspit
could have direct impact on U.S. global warming policies, if scandal worsens for them. How does Jackson story connect to global warming?

6. The Jackson story is the epitome of global warming

Where else are you going to see so much hot air, other than a major party convention?

The Guckert scandal won't go anywhere. We lost our best chance to get rid of Bush in November. For my health I've accepted that he's in for the duration.

3. Which story
This is what happens when people don't want to deal with real issues. Covering MJ from dawn until dusk (and beyond) is so much easier to think about than Jeff Gannon (or whatever his name is). We're a simple society with simple needs.

4. Depends on your definition of Important
Like the woman on the Daily show who was mad as hell that they interrupted CSI to announce Arafat's death....

Gotta have priorities after all. Watch the shiny coin, not what I'm doing with my other hand.

9. Do you think Entertainment Tonight. is MSM ?
It has a bigger share of of three MSM networks.

Micheal Jackson story is of paramount national importance.
