Just checking. If you look at the news right now it's a bit hard to tell. [/snark]

Nothing more important going on in the world I guess.

Zombie Anna Nicole. She'll be Zombie Reagan's new first lady.

Wait...you have a picture of her dead body and there is a red mark on her neck?????? Maybe she was a russian spy, and they used a blow gun on her!

Dead dead.

For the love of God, WHY WON'T ANYBODY TELL US ABOUT ANNA NICOLE SMITH?!?!

I keep seeing news stories about how she's dead! Are they true?! We need more news stories to cover this!!!

But perhaps the stories about her being dead are not enough. We also need stories about how Anna Nicole Smith is no longer living!!!

And to really understand the topic, we also need soft-news journalists to present us with a look back at the life and times of this important American icon!!!

Wait, DID ANNA NICOLE SMITH DIE?!?!! Why won't anybody tell me about Anna Nicole Smith?! Damn you, Rupert Murdoch!!!!!

This is where I turn my eyes to the sky and thank Mod I don't own a TV.

I have to admit, I'm on the edge of my seat awaiting the next Anna Nicole update, wondering if her condition is going to change.

These are the times I really fucking hate the corporate media.

Vampire bite, obviously. She will rise from the dead to suck the blood of the living.

No kidding. I say we just boycott the shit until they put real news up, like the winner of survivor or something. :rolleyes:

Yeah, tell me about it. My dad was watching the news this morning and got fed up with seeing reports about the whole dealie on one channel, so he flicks to another local station and it's on there. To the NBC affiliate and surprise surprise, she's on the Today Show too. He flicks to CNN, and no shocker, it's there also. He gave up at that point, and I was not exactly eager to continue his efforts.

You know...that just gave me an idea for a porno movie.... :D

This situation gets me so riled up it's impossible for me to be sarcastic about it.

Is the media completely oblivious of how irrelevant she was? Or, more importantly, what a horrible person she was? It's sad when anyone dies, so I'd be content with a small blip on the news ticker and maybe a blurb on the page 8 obituaries, but she deserves nothing better.

Been done. Unfortunately, according to the rules here, I can't provide links. :(

After Will Farrell I like to make sure they're dead for at least 8 buisness day hours.

when did will ferrel die?

She was a celebrity. She was playmate of the year in Playboy magazine, made some softcore porn, shared her life through a reality TV show, and fucked a very old man for money. Have some respect.

Wait, DID ANNA NICOLE SMITH DIE?!?!! Why won't anybody tell me about Anna Nicole Smith?! Damn you, Rupert Murdoch!!!!! don't forget, they have to do the interview of Dannilyn about the loss of her mother. I hear they are having trouble scheduling the interview because of her heavy schedule of feeding and napping.

Vampire bite, obviously. She will rise from the dead to suck the blood of the living. suck something anyway... :D

You know...that just gave me an idea for a porno movie.... :D better check, it might've been overdone already. ;)

Dang...well..Have they done a zombie porno? Like the girl eats another girl and turns her into a zombie? :p

yeah she's still dead.

this nonstop coverage of the life and death of a woman who was only famous for being famous is such a fitting tribute to her. it is as if the media is granting her dying wish.

when did will ferrel die?
Earlier this year it was reported by several news stations that Will Farrell died in a paragliding accident. A few hours later, retractions were issued.

When Ray Charles died there was a tiny blip on the ticker that ran for 3 minutes. Gotta love the media's sense of priorities.

She will rise from the dead to suck the blood of the living.

She didn't do that already?

Maybe now she'll suck the braincells she lacked in life.

When Ray Charles died there was a tiny blip on the ticker that ran for 3 minutes. Gotta love the media's sense of priorities.

Well what on earth did Ray Charles do for humanity?

Anna Nicole was a guess jeans model, playmate of the year, trimspa girl, and did the ultimate marry for money scheme.

All Ray did was write a few songs. And he was blind. Hell, anyone can be blind if they want to. What's the skill in that?

ah, i guess that news story didn't make it across the pond. and he's well more significant than ANS.

Yeah, that's been done before, too. Mmmm...Stephanie Swift. Again, though, rules prevent me from linking. :(

He was a billionaire. I don't necessarily fault her for that, but I fault her for insisting that she loved him.

Give her a few months in the pine box though, and they'll look more or less the same. :D

Did the media ever bother saying how she died?

This thread reminded me of one of the greatest bits from early SNL.

Good evening, I'm Chevy Chase and you are not. This is Weekend Update. Now our top story. Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

-------------------
(Later on in the newscast)

Chevy: Now we will repeat our top story of the night. Headmaster Garrett Morris of the New York School for the Hard of Hearing will assist for those who are hard of hearing.

Chevy: Our top story tonight

Garrett: (yelling at the top of his lungs) OUR TOP STORY TONIGHT

C: Generalissimo Francisco Franco

G: (his yelling is now overlapping with Chevy) Generalissimo Francisco Frano

C: is still dead.

G: IS STILL DEAD

C: Goodnight and have a pleasant tomorrow.

G: GOODNIGHT AND HAVE A PLEASANT TOMORROW.

I don't think the autopsy has been done yet. As soon as they find out, we will have 48 hours of non-stop coverage on it.

The world waits with rapt attention...

Now they're comparing her to Marilyn Monroe.

really? I bet 48 weeks... at least!

The person who made gold digging famous might not be dead? I'll just have to make sure. *click-click*

I don't even care enough about anna to read this thred. Sorry if I'm posting off topic..

I wonder what the cause of death was, assassination or overdose? or an assassination meant to look like an overdose

When Ray Charles died there was a tiny blip on the ticker that ran for 3 minutes. Gotta love the media's sense of priorities.

And then there was a giant movie, a PBS special, etc. I don't think he went unnoticed. Neither did James Brown, although his body is still in an undisclosed location...Zombie?

I wonder what the cause of death was, assassination or overdose? or an assassination meant to look like an overdose

Struck by a random thought.

is anyone else bothered by the fact that the news covers the death of Ann Nicole more than they did the death of Ford or RR?

This sums up her career perfectly.

This just in. Anna Nicole apparently chocked on her own vomit.
...and had relations with a Kennedy.

Zombie boobies... I have to think about that!

Wait, is that a "Tramp Stamp" tattoo, I see inked over her butt? Vindication feels so good.

Most ppl don't know who their elected representative is. Why would you expect them to care when they pass?

I was too happy when the inventor of AIDs and Crack died. Much like I am now.

Is Anna Nicole Smith still dead?

No shit, Sherlock.

No shit, Sherlock.

Hay guys I think he was sarcastic.

is anyone else bothered by the fact that the news covers the death of Ann Nicole more than they did the death of Ford or RR?

I think you're wrong, here. I doubt very much that Ms Smith's memorial will be televised, nor will her procession to the cemetery. I don't even think she will get a tenth of the air time that Ford's death and career redux got, despite the fact that it would be far more entertaining.

is anyone else bothered by the fact that the news covers the death of Ann Nicole more than they did the death of Ford or RR?

Please. They covered Reagan more than practically anyone else in the past twenty or so years.

And Ford was like 90-something. That's not news. That's inevitability.

Hay guys I think he was sarcastic.

That makes two people. Please don't mod me.

And Ford was like 90-something. That's not news. That's inevitability.

Ms. Smith dying isn't news either. She didn't do anything but act stupid and do drugs. The death of a President is always news.

She was what, in her thirties? That's news. Plus, how many people even knew Ford was still alive?

And neither of them had a good rack.

I don't know, I haven't made my spell resistance check for total resurrection yet.

She was what, in her thirties? That's news. Plus, how many people even knew Ford was still alive?I did! I saw him get the Ronald Reagan award for longest living president! :D

She was what, in her thirties? That's news. Plus, how many people even knew Ford was still alive?

I'm curious: is any news network covering this outside of the U.S. at all?

there are alot of people who die in their thirties, and younger. Why aren't they covered?

Because they weren't famous. Famous makes news.

I'm curious: is any news network covering this outside of the U.S. at all?Sadly, yes (http://www.rtl.de/news/rtl_aktuell.php), but luckily, those are just the sensationalist channels here. I didn't find the story on the real news.

They don't count unless they're blonde, buxom, and have been in Playboy.

She was playmate of the year 1993. Give credit where credit is due.

Sadly, yes (http://www.rtl.de/news/rtl_aktuell.php), but luckily, those are just the sensationalist channels here. I didn't find the story on the real news.

Damn it. Why can't you bloody Europeans being more reasonable and not cover it at all like I want you to be?! WHY CAN'T YOU BE BETTER THAN AMERICANS LIKE YOU USUALLY ARE?!

...

Sorry. I'm a little...flustered.

I don't know why, but this thread is really fucking pissing me off..

She was playmate of the year 1993. Give credit where credit is due.

Sorry. Anyone pre-1999 I get all mixed up.

I don't know why, but this thread is really fucking pissing me off..

because you don't like people speaking ill of the recently dead?

She was playmate of the year 1993. Give credit where credit is due.

I thought it was 1992.

Edit: I was wrong she was in Playboy in 92 I guess but was playmate of the year in 93

because you don't like people speaking ill of the recently dead?

That would make sense...

When the hell did Anna Nicole Smith die? And how?

Not that I really care, just curious. I hate it when celebrities die though, they suck up all the air time for much more important stories. :mad:

Sorry. I'm a little...flustered.I couldn't find it here (http://www.tagesschau.de/), and that's where I go for my real news.

No mention of her on the evening program either:

Unrest in Jerusalem
Palestinian Agreement reached
EADS
EU Environmental Penalties
Company Car Privilege (relating to environmental/tax issues)
G-7 Treasury Minister Summit
City Finances
Pushing for Preschools
Trial in Potsdam (relating to an attack on a dark skinned German)
World Press Photo
Bobsledding
Weather

There's crap channels over here too, but they're not all crap.

Just checking. If you look at the news right now it's a bit hard to tell. [/snark]

Even dead, she gets more attention than she deserves. :p

The normal stations just said she was dead, nothing else.
The americanized stations started showing all the bloody of her life etc. - and it's not like we don't want to be reasonable, eh? ;)
I thought it was 1992.

Edit: I was wrong she was in Playboy in 92 I guess but was playmate of the year in 93
She... uhm... your edit! (You're quick...)

because you don't like people speaking ill of the recently dead?

Yeah.

It really annoys me at how people can be such assholes.

How long do we have to wait until she's eligible for sainthood?

Santa Anna Nicole, Patron Saint of Lactation.

Oh, goodie. At least Deuschtland in being reasonable. Presuming I spelled that correctly, which I probably didn't.

Almost... ;)

Yeah.

It really annoys me at how people can be such assholes.

bothers me a bit too actually

noone knows what heppened or what she was going thru mentally

she just had to deal with her sons death and I believe she thought the world of her son (as in: the person she cared most about in life)...

It's actually a very sad story. Probably not worthy of the amount of attention it is getting, but sad nonetheless.

I agree with those bashing news organizations over their unending coverage, but dont understand those bashing Anna Nicole Smith.

Plus I was hot for her body :cool:

Oh, goodie. At least Deuschtland in being reasonable. Presuming I spelled that correctly, which I probably didn't.It's the public channel. The commercial channels are the same as the American (commercial) channels. They're more interested in ratings than delivering a quality news program.

I certainly don't hold any animosity toward her.
If I gave that impression, I'm sorry. On the other hand, I never understood the media's obsession with her. Even in death. Now they're comparing her to Marilyn Monroe. It is like a spike to my brain. :(

No shit, Sherlock.

Fuck you, Watson!

:p

Well I think it probably has to do with her wishing to be like Marilyn Monroe and modelling herself after her (since she was in her teens I believe).

Almost... ;)

Ah. Better spelling than I've had lately with a lot of other words, anyway.

Laerod: Question is, does this public channel garner more attention and support than our own PBS?

Laerod: Question is, does this public channel garner more attention and support than our own PBS?By far. Tagesschau, the news program, got 17.6 % market shares yesterday. A lot of channels have just switched to showing their news earlier to avoid schedule conflicts with it.

Well I think it probably has to do with her wishing to be like Marilyn Monroe and modelling herself after her (since she was in her teens I believe).

I thought she dedicated her life to making lawyers stinking rich.

They should award her some kind of lifetime achievement award. :p

(Yes, it does.)
By far. Tagesschau, the news program, got 17.6 % market shares yesterday. A lot of channels have just switched to showing their news earlier to avoid schedule conflicts with it.
And in addition to that, all the evening programs start at 20:15 - after the Tagesschau is done. Some channels have tried to start their movies at 20:00 but received way too many complaints to continue that.

hehehe

Not sure - the recent stories about Anna Nicole Smith (since her son died) are the only reason I know anything about her. All I knew before that was that she has sexy curves, a beautiful face and made me laugh whenever she was drunk in public on camera doing the ditsy blonde "routine" (?).

hehehe

I haven't seen them recently, but in 1992-3 when she won Playmate of the Year, she had really flawless breasts. *nod*

I don't know why, but this thread is really fucking pissing me off..

YAY! One more thing to cross off the list.

Fuck you, Watson!

Lolz.

However, you probably meant "Check the toilet, Watson."

Yeah--The Anna Nicole Show was just like Some Like It Hot. Jeez.

More important and related question - is Ariel Sharon still in a vegetative state in a hospital in Jarusalem at this point, instead of being allowed to die?

When the hell did Anna Nicole Smith die? And how?

Not that I really care, just curious. I hate it when celebrities die though, they suck up all the air time for much more important stories. :mad:

Good point there, Pancake.

Nothing more important going on in the world I guess.

Remember, we DON'T have a civil war going on in Iraq. We DON'T have an illegal immigration problem. We DON'T have a growing disparity between rich and poor. So yeah, we don't have ANYTHING else to report about.

More important and related question - is Ariel Sharon still in a vegetative state in a hospital in Jarusalem at this point, instead of being allowed to die?
Serves him right.

This is why people should avoid getting their news from TV, it's all gossipy drivel about hollywood non-entities.

People should get their news the same way that I do. Remote viewing.
