the ongoing crisis of standards
Tabloid Editor Concerned About Dumbing Down of Media
Strangely non-evil Us Weekly editor Janice Min is ticked that TV news
has gotten all tabloidey:
“I wanted to turn on news and watch information about the Scooter
Libby trial, and all I could find was wall-to-wall Anna Nicole.”
That’s how we felt last week when we opened Us and all we could find
was an analysis of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget’s new
FY2008 publication! (With online vidcast component narrated by
shirtless Battlestar Galactica star Jamie Bamber!)
