How To Ignore The News

Hey all. So like many people I have been following the Charlie Sheen drama through osmosis. I don't actively seek it out, it just manages its way into my day to day life. Like last night.
Last night I had PVRd the show Raising Hope but the 20/20 Charlie Sheen interview was on instead. This is always very upsetting to me when one thing says it's being taped and something else ends up being on, like a State of the Union Address, for example (I taped Project Runway dammit, I don't need to be filled in on current events!).

So I watched the interview and was so angry I was screaming at the TV. The last time I screamed at the T.V was when I was watching The Hills a few years ago. The character Spencer said something so stupid that I shouted "Oh my god!", at the T.V. I then abruptly turned it off and never watched The Hills again. Mindless entertainment should be entertaining, not emotionally exhausting.

Anyways, I was screaming because the interview was useless. Sheen shed no light into anything that was relevant. He barely talked about what was happening with Two and a Half Men, and kept saying he would defend his bitchin lifestyle through violent hatred. What does that even mean?
AGH no one cares. It's clear that ABC's 20/20 only did this interview because they're so excited that the most popular show on their rival network is ending through violent hatred. The woman hosting the interview was judgemental and misinformed. What a waste of forty two minutes of my life (yeah, that's right PVR means no commercials!).

I don't know what is happening in pop culture right now but just make it stop. Between the anti-semitism of John Galliano, Mel Gibson and Charlie Sheen; along with the messes of Christina Aguilera, and Lindsay Lohan, I miss fun entertainment news.
I also hate knowing so much information. Like on Good Morning America, they released Charlie Sheen's drug test results, LIVE! It's been said before but, have you no decency sir?
When I was a kid everything really was just slightly classier. US magazine used to have articles and pictures taken by successful photographers. Entertainment news was relevant to entertainment, not Tila Tequila's bi-sexual break up (true headline).

Just go back to the way things were, please. And pull a Bambi, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all".
You know what, I understand what Violent hatred means now. I violently hate the direction of the media (except for you Perez Hilton, you're my star!).

Thanks for reading!!
