Mika sticks it to the man

Yesterday morning MSNBC news anchor Mika Brezezinski refused to report on the lead story of Paris Hilton being released from jail, attempting to burn the paper on which the story was written in a defiant protest against celebrity culture.

Saying "I hate this story and I don't think it should be our lead", Brezezinski was teased by her co-anchors who joked that she "changed the world" as she fed the paper into a shredding machine live on air.



It's a bizzare piece of footage, some people believe it was staged.
Although she is completely correct and justified in her opinions, neither Brezezinski nor her co-anchors seemed to be taking it very seriously at all.

Anyway in the words of Kent Brockman, that's my two cents. I promise that this blog will return to being about music and less about other stuff soon.
