Please tell me ... how does the death of a celebrity's dog really merit media attention?
First we have the Big O's spaniel getting a whole show dedicated to its memory, and much to do made over just that fact. Today we have Ms. M.S*.'s chow chow getting AP wire coverage.
There are more important things that need media space, say, oh, I don't know: the economy, the war, famine, plague, strive, wars and rumours of wars. Priorities people, please!
Yes, I understand that pets are important family members to their owners/caretakers -- but national and international media attention?
COME ON!
* and this has NOTHING to do with the fact that I dislike strongly Ms. M.S. and consider her the equivalent of a demon from Hell.
(So glad that the comments are disabled! Can just imagine the flaming I would be getting right now ... )
