Behold the CNN.com homepage:
More than 80% of the home page focused on the death of one of the epitomes of superficiality and irrelevance of this age, a woman famous mostly because of her attempts at getting a share of an old tycoon’s money after his death. Well, that and Cat rescued from icy stream.
Buried between stories about snow in New York and how NASA is tested by the fact that - surprise, surprise - astronauts are only humans after all, a report about how the Pentagon purposely manipulated intelligence in an effort to link Saddam Hussein to al-Qaeda in the runup to the U.S. invasion of Iraq that nobody will read.
And who could blamed them? The news came out on the day that a playmate died.
