I am totally up to speed on the ins and outs of Anna Nicole's posthumous legal tussles and Britney's shorn locks, despite my lack of interest in either. One would have to be cut off from every form of media not to be. The cult of celebrity has probably always existed, but it has reached absurd and revolting levels in the past 20 years. Diana was probably killed by it, and individuals such as Michael Jackson and Lindsay Lohan are chewed up and spit out by it.
Meanwhile, people around the world are hungry, homeless, sick, tortured and ignored, but you want find much, if any, of that on the evening news.
