Have you noticed lately how sickening the news is? I know, I know ... This is what our grandparents used to see when they saw news reports of urban shootings on the telly. Buy I don't even own telly, and it's getting so I can hardly stomach turning to the internet news pages anymore without taking an anti-nausea tablet. Over the last three months we've had the following:
Then, just when one would think it couldn't possibly get any worse, we have this announcement from CNN.com (November 16, 2006):
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- O.J. Simpson created an uproar Wednesday with plans for a TV interview and book titled "If I Did It" -- an account the publisher pronounced "his confession" and media executives condemned as revolting and exploitive.
One cannot avoid noting the nefariously telling if inadvertent irony of the fact that CNN's article, "
Publisher on O.J.: 'I consider this his confession'," is posted in the 'Entertainment' section. So this is what we've come to? This is
entertainment? Sodom. Sodom was less iniquitous!
