The TMZ tv show
I'm probably taking things too seriously, but - it makes me sick to my stomach to watch a bunch of soulless, no talent ass clowns sitting around their office pretending to shoot the [expletive] and exploiting the foibles of people who have actually made creative contributions to society, and then passing that off as entertainment. I'm okay when they deal with equally untalented people like Paris HIlton, but harassing Clint Eastwood? That's crossing the line. Never mind that smug boss leaning over the cubicle with his coffee like he's Mr. Casual fun guy.

I accidently watched a few minutes last night and was thinking of posting the same rant.
Said that, I watched enough for it to cross my mind that I wouldn't be shocked if someday a celeb snaps and AKs an entire crowd of paparazzi.

I watched part of one episode. They tried to make an issue out of Brad Garrett using the term "boy" in a totally inoffensive manner, since he had apparently been accused of making offensive remarks about blacks in the past. The very next story was a correction of a previous day's story. Apparently one of their cameramen had seen some random Asian guy wandering the streets, mistaken him for Judge Ito, and asked him about O.J. The guy responded that O.J. was guilty and should be in prison, so they'd gone public with the story: "Judge Ito: O.J. is guilty!"
This apology was presented directly after raking Garrett over the coals for perceived racism, without a hint of irony.

This rant hits close to home; a few months ago, the local Fox affiliate replaced Seinfeld at 6:30, which I'd watch while eating dinner, with the TMZ show.
So take an endlessly entertaining program at an hour where there isn't anything worth watching on TV and replace it with...something that is soulless and awful. Thanks Fox. Die in a fire.

I just hate the boss who is always drinking out of the same cup with the green straw. Every single time.
