Media Frenzies

Is it just me or is the only good thing about the media frenzy on the Anna Nicole Smith story is that it supplanted the media frenzy on the crazy astronaut story, which ended (for now) the media frenzy on Lindsey/Britney/Paris.

The craziest addition is that Prince Frederic Von Anhalt (aka Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband) claims he's the father of Anna Nicole's baby. Apparently has a history of coming up with crazy stories. Previously he sued Pfizer, claiming Viagra made him impotent. Reconcile those two statements.

Think Progress covers the coverage pointing out "coverage of the war was drowned out". Will Bunch writes about another sudden tragic death that might deserve more coverage.

Ergo, the Bush administration had Anna Nicole Smith killed. :-)
