[QUOTE="Days of Broken Arrows, post: 565937, member: 4258"] I wish I could say you were right. But coming from a media background, I can tell you there are enough Web sites (Gawker), cable channels (MTV, Lifetime), and newspapers (all of 'em) that will welcome such a basket case for her "bravery" and "boldness." And her ability to attract lowest common denominator audiences. In fact, your comment made me start to wonder if her entire presentation isn't her idea of a prelude to some sort of media career -- maybe as a producer or "youth correspondent." She sure knows how to get attention, and that's what matters in medialand. Long Island Lolita Amy Fisher got a column in Newsday; Newsweek now regularly taps porn stars as "special correspondents" for the sex industry. I'm sure there are lots of other examples other people can think of as well. [/QUOTE]
