Ever!

"The 26-year-old heiress is expected to be released from a Los Angeles County women's jail early this week, and will give her first post-jail TV interview to "Larry King Live," Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET (Thursday 0900 GMT, 1700 Hong Kong time)."

You know they paid around a million dollars, since ABC and NBC bid about as much, but gave up due to PR issues. How fucking sad, you are basically rewarding someone for drinking and driving. Good job CNN.

This is not the first or last time that some one with money and/or fame has gotten big bucks from their misdeeds. How many movie and book deals have gone down in the past because of it. Unfortunately, that is what the too much of the American public wants, so that's what drives ratings.

UMNN - USMarine News Network?

edit: Why the hell do they do this stuff anyways? Yeah yeah, ratings... sad that we as a people are more intrigued about the life of a million dollar slut over something actually intellectual and worth learning more about.

Leno said it best, "Who better to get a million dollars for an interview than the Hilton family?" This fucking country is becoming a joke. When will Paris finally be assassinated? It's getting really really sad.

Oh God no. I hope she doesn't get assassinated. We'd probably have more coverage than Anna Nicole Smith and Gerald Ford (sad he got fuck-all coverage compared to some washed-out whale of a whore) combined, with a year of national mourning. And we'd probably nuke Iran in retribution.

CNN/FOX/CBS/NBC are all ratings whores and thus the same level of Fail in my opinion.

I thought of that after I posted, that would be horrible.

The amount of money they'll get in return makes up for it, face it. The world likes Paris Hilton, therefore, the world sucks. Fuck 'em all. Damn Media.

If you have Direct TV, I think you can get the main BBC channel and maybe even some of the other ones.

I'm more of a movies guy myself.

EDIT: 72 inches? Jesus... you've got the Ron Jeremy of TVs... lol
