- reeder, on 10/11/2007, -5/+462I'd like to see the same headline but without the word story in it.
- sonaro, on 10/11/2007, -9/+341"It may be a coincidence, but three days after the incident MSNBC told Brzezinski that she'll have a regular hour to anchor the news each morning."
A lot of people sent in emails congratulating her and I was one of them. We definitely had a role in getting her that hour. - nymphetamine, on 10/11/2007, -2/+147"It's not like I'll never cover a Paris Hilton story again and it's not like I'm never going to listen to my producer again,"
*****! - chopenik, on 10/11/2007, -42/+158Sorry but I just woke up from a coma so..... who the f*** is Paris Hilton?
- knaps, on 10/11/2007, -2/+89You don't know?
Lucky. - Samji, on 10/11/2007, -7/+79She just did what we're all thinking. ***** off Paris Hilton, you little spoiled whore!
Paris Hilton is the personification (whoration?) of everything I hate about these so-called "socialites". - Lacero, on 10/11/2007, -2/+67A twist of irony, if you ask me. Getting attention because of the very subject matter she is trying to avoid.
- kidtsunami, on 10/11/2007, -7/+71I definitely think that I was solely responsible, cause I sent emails AND IMs, I used every faculty the internet has provided me, and since it was the internet, it worked and now she has this job.
- actorboy, on 10/11/2007, -3/+53She never used a lighter to destroy the script. She came close, or at least acted as if she would, but was stopped. I remember watching her flick that lighter and wondered how long it would take for the sprinklers to kick in if she did it.
- noahhoward, on 10/11/2007, -6/+53I'm sure ratings had a hell of a lot more to do with it.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+41The Clip
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VdNcCcweL0 - Calcularius, on 10/11/2007, -0/+35It's a hotel in France.
I don't recommend staying there. - Jwoey, on 10/11/2007, -0/+26most detectors/sprinklers aren't that sensitive.
- spiffytech, on 10/11/2007, -2/+25Look at the feeling of importance this man has because of Mr. Rogers evil influence on society!!
- nova912, on 10/11/2007, -1/+24I sent an email in too, the only time I have ever seen a Digg story with an email to the company listed that I took a few minutes to type one up.
- drakenlot, on 10/11/2007, -5/+27Oh, don't go bursting their bubbles, that's just mean...
- drakenlot, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21Why is he getting dugg down for that?
- carleethian, on 10/11/2007, -1/+20some slut, don't worry about it
- spudnic, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19Sibling means brother or sister.
Furthermore, judging her based on what her father does is utterly ridiculous. - RadicalEdward, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18Wait a minute MSNBC isn't owned by microsoft.. it's owned by GE? Where the hell have i been? Did you guys know this?
- simpleid, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19No clue, but I did my part to revert that error.
- keozen, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18Ohhh, say that again, I got shivers :o)
- m0nk, on 10/11/2007, -3/+18If only there were more journalists like her, more who cared about real news. It's the coverage that these "celebrities" get in the media that gives them their only popularity.
- andytandreou, on 10/11/2007, -2/+17Switch the words hailed and killing and you have another winner :)..... "Reporter Killed for Hailing Hilton Story!!!"
- Markpdotcom, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Paris, is that you?
- noch, on 10/11/2007, -3/+17whoa, wait, Paris Hilton went to jail?
- roystgnr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Dear God, man, go back to sleep before it's too late!!!
- jhuebel, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Smoke alarms may have tripped, but sprinklers require more direct heat to be triggered: http://www.projo.com/extra/2003/stationfire/pdf/sprinkler.pdf
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15Yeah, but on tv, sprinkler systems always turn on at the sight of any smoke.
- atrocityexhibit, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12Well, she wasn't really keeping any news from anyone, merely expressing her distaste for the importance of the subject. I think it was more of an act of expression than of censorship.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12You know... someone who coordinates a genocide.. you see them all the time.. they go into the hallmark store, look through the books of invitations for one or two hours while their spouses just desperately want to leave the store.. eventually they pick one out and have it filled out in a nice cursive script that reads "You are cordially invited to a shower party.. it will be a gas, please only bring yourselves and a change of clothes for afterwards"
- bigvixen, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14Mika Brzezinski won't report on a Paris Hilton story, but Alex and Kevin will apparently.
- hfactor, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11No, the BBC already HAS quality news. Give America a chance.
- Navicerts, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11I think the word you were looking for is "all", not most.
Sprinkler heads commonly activate when the heat from a fire melts something that acts like a trigger. Maybe you are thinking of a smoke detector, or maybe you are thinking they are one in the same like we see in the movies. - beckerist, on 10/11/2007, -5/+16If you DO think this was scripted, you obviously didn't watch the clip, let alone the show.
- steveoco, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13One reason the world is making any progress as a whole is people don't look at the REAL NEWS!
This blond whore is just a head full of air, coke and jizz... why the ***** did it take so much real news time away from important news?
The current western culture is too superficial. - Moocat, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Damned if you do, damned if you don't eh? You must be a blast at parties :p
- axiomflash, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11do you have any idea how ironic this story is?
- ronaldinho, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10well, you know we all like another story of Paris going into jail again, and this time staying there for longer than last time. If that's the kind of news I hear about Paris, no it's not too bad
- Eivo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9What is with all the breitbart.com stories on the front page? Three in a row?
- spudnic, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Especially around ludicrously expensive equipment.
It's literally hundreds of thousands for a Steadicam for example, and that's just one thing. - washingtonydc, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Zbig must be proud!
- BLish, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9look up on wikipedia next to Black Hole ... and you will have your answer.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8She should get her ass over to the BBC.
- penneyisok, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Damn you for pointing that out. Why in the world would you want me thinking that burning the Paris Hilton story wasn't maybe the best idea! Damn you logical thinking, damn you...
Um, I think this comment needs a couple more damn's, damn! - hatchetj, on 10/11/2007, -4/+11anyone else notice that this is pretty much another story all because of paris hilton?? can't it just die?
- arjung, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8This story is from July 8th, which was YESTERDAY...
- proplayer805, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7ha ha funny but smart
- profOblivion, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7http://digg.com/television/Ever_Wondered_Who_Really_Owns_the_Media - Summary: GE is way huge.
- Eliza101, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7"CBS's Katie Couric told a Boston audience in May, to applause, that "we have a precious amount of time on the `CBS Evening News' and I don't think we need to ever utter the name Paris Hilton." A month later, Couric's broadcast reported on Hilton's jailing and the controversy over her short-lived release."
This annoys me. Yes, we shouldn't talk about Hilton and treat her rehab stays and red-carpet fiascoes as news, but her early release and subsequent backlash WAS news. It was important for the mass media to pick up on this. -
