media

I can't believe the number of newspapers that published an article about Condoleeza Rice and Peter McKay being an item or not being an item. I'm not sure who is stupider, the media, or the readers who clearly love to eat up their crap. Most likely it started by a bunch of bloggers joking around, posting pictures of the two holding hands, etc... and the mass media jumped on. Colbert sure ripped in the media last night on this issue making fun of both the media for writing articles about how others were writing about it, and the gossip readers, by pretending to be one himself in his usual way.
