Blogs > In The Mix

Reporter Shaun Byron and Video Editor Andrew DuPont sound-off on whatever is on their minds, from politics to pop-culture, from movies to the main stream media. Local, national, world-wide? If it's in the media mix, these two are sure to have an opinion on it.

Want to be famous, say something inflamatory

Carrie Prejean has learned the best way to get instant fame.
Say something that will get the talking heads of TV going on national television and you'll get what you want, even if you come in second.
Now, as we probably all know by now, some photos have popped up of the beauty queen that are far from the wholesome values she espouses.
I could care less about what Prejean's views on gay marriage are. I don't agree with her (if that is truly how she feels), but I respect her opinion. I also don't think the pictures of her (at least what has been shown briefly on television) are all that pornographic.
I just wish we could all move on from it.
I don't think carrying the crown of Miss California puts her in any position to really make any kind of legal decision for or against gay marriage. So lets give her opinions a rest.
Moral judgements on the photos Prejean posed for are no more valid than her own views on homosexuals being married.
We should all just go back to our glass houses.

You said it shaun, this story is really tired and I'm tired of hearing about it. I don't know whats worse, the fact that in a "free" country, a huge ordeal was made of someone stating their personal opinion...or the fact that she has manipulated the situation so that she looks like some type of victim who is persevering to get her voice out...she doesn't matter, she didn't even win the competition, please let her drift into oblivion where she belongs...thefrogblogg.blogspot.com
