Today a few things happened - Iraq, London, Poverty etc..,

But for some reason US TV network MSNBC wanted to lead their news hour with a Paris Hilton story. You know the vapid girl who went to jail (not prison) and suffered attention deficit disorder, read the bible but couldn't remember her favourite passage....

Watch this video as Mika Brzezinsk refused on air to lead with the story saying she wanted Iraq first and then tried to burn her script.

you can read more about Mika Brzezinsk at wikipedia here -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mika_Brzezinski she's a very nice looking woman who just suffers from a difficult to pronounce surname.

you can read about how international campaigners put Paris in Jail here :-

& here which though written in Spanish does offer you a reminder of art activist "Banksy" and his campaign against the heiress - http://barcelona.indymedia.org/newswire/display/303006/...x.php
though of course most right thinking indymedia people didn't see an issue worth worrying about. Which I find quite strange - Paris Hilton and the attention given her is actually a very serious problem. which is why I send her hatemail and devote my free time to spamming her email.
