Somewhat Warped, but Positive, Sign in Gossip Column

Jeannette Walls does a gossip column for MSNBC called 'Jeannette Walls Delivers the Scoop.' The lead item in the linked column has to do with K-Fed's opinion of Britney's hiring of a male nanny...

I have no idea why I read the article in the first place, but if you read it to the end you'll find an item on Janeane Garafolo and Sam Seder having a spat on the set of the Majority Report.

I don't know anything about the alleged spat. I don't really care. Gossip, even celebrity gossip, is kind of ugly.

What I do know is that names like Sam Seder and The Majority Report are appearing in CELEBRITY gossip columns. They are implicitly given cultural icon status, with the assumption that they should be of interest to the pop-culturally literate.

Pardon me if it seems strange, but I'm going to celebrate what looks like one big step for the Left Wing Noise Machine.
