WWTD?

Anyone catch that disgusting display by Ellen DeGeneres on her own show yesterday? I did. It was the fourth freaking lead story on the NBC Nightly News last night, so I had no choice.

My problem isn't with Ellen, but NBC News. If Ellen wants to go on TV and make an ass of herself, I say she should knock herself out. But there was absolutely NOTHING nationally news worthy in her rant and shame on NBC for even mentioning the story, let alone giving it full-blown coverage. Nothing like chucking your journalistic integrity out the window for some high profile ratings.
