too much TV

In the "Britney's good for something, at least" files, I saw a report on CNN tonight about the LAPD cracking down on tabloid photographers because of the complaints they're getting about invasion of privacy, blocking traffic, crowding, etc. The L.A. Times writer who has reported this was on there.

I love that deflection at the end - "Hey! We're news gatherers, too! We have a right to be there!" Um, yeah, 'cause TMZ paparazzi are just the exact same caliber as, you know, those writers for National Geographic. LOL ...
