Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
Mika Brzezinski, anchor on MSNBC's Morning Joe, tries to burn -- with a lighter -- the lead story about Paris Hilton's release from jail.

After co-anchors take the ligher, she tears it up.

The producer gives her another copy of the story and she shreds it.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
I'll toss in my two cents. PH comes on the news and I head to the fridge, bathroom or whatever excuse I have to get away from watching. Truly not newsworthy. And I applaud Brzezinski.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
I say bravo! Thank god someone in the media finally stood up. I hope they fire her as anchor person and some half-intelligent news channel (what an oxymoron) puts her in charge of an honest, truthful show. I am so tired of people glossing over the truth so that they can show ridiculous shit that attracts the attention of the sheep away from the reality of it all. I also hope her coanchors are put in front of a firing squad. What a pair of corporate pussies.

Haha... awesome. Maybe not very professional of her, but I would say that that's worth it. The details of one person's life shouldn't be important to people just because he or she's famous. And famous for no good reason at that.

Much love to the anchor. It's great to see actual people reading the news rather than a talking head.

Should she be fined or what have you for her actions, I bet the support behind her would be incredible.

On a side note, maybe the other two were just trying to make light of the situation, but frankly, they came off as total assholes.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
'why do you have to be such a journalist about it?'

seriously this stuff is retarded. news shows/channels, in the name of ratings, have decided to only do things to attract people who dont like watching the news.

anyone know of a real news source out there? there has to be more than a show on comedy central that actually reports important information.

For real news, stop watching TV. You'll have to read it. Check out the BBC, ABC (australian broadcasting corp) or the Economist. Basically, use a variety of sources from various parts of the world. You'll get different points of view that you won't find domestically.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
YEAH!!! I would have done the exact same thing in her position!! If she does get fined, or fired, I have totally lost faith in the media. Not that I completely trusted it to begin with--

What the hell does Paris Hilton have to do with anything at all?!?!?! My cat pukes up more interesting subject matter than Paris Hilton's "problems." The only thing I'd like to see with PH is a reality series that puts her in a position such as mine--a full-time college student working as a janitor at night without mummy and daddy's checkbook for support. She wouldn't last a day.

With her kind of money, you'd think she could at least afford a good set of boobs.

So does anyone actually know what Paris is up to now? I'd really wanna know and have hoped I get some insights about her recent development from this video here. But Mika didn't say anything about Paris.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
My god the other guys were dicks... ripping on her for what she was doing.

I applaud her for not wanting to give that bimbo one ounce more coverage, especially on what is supposed to be a 'news' show, not an 'entertainment wrap up' show.

Re: Anchor Rips Up Lead Story on Paris Hilton
Bravo! Now THAT was an editorial of the highest caliber. Every anchor in the nation should take this as an example on how to treat "stories" like OJ Simpson, Joey Buttafucco, the guy from Baretta, Monica Lewinski, Michael Jackson, Bennifer, Brangelina... goddam, the list can go on and on.

My point being, there's always bread and circus to bury important stories concerning the functioning of the US government, and STILL they call it the "liberal media". It's very gratifying to see an anchor take a stand.
