Feeding Frenzy

on: Jul/16/04 and its been viewed 779 times

I’m sitting here having my morning cup of coffee (a must have!) and I have Fox News running in the background. I’m watching the feeding frenzy that is the lead up to the Martha Stewart sentencing. These finance people that are speculating about her sentence sound absolutely, downright thrilled and giddy over the prospect of what her sentence is going to be.

You’d think they could, at least, contain themselves.

–==Update==–

5 months with two years probation. Moving on…

    I’m watching it too and must agree with you. They’re practically orgasmic over the whole thing. Did you see the one guy who thinks they should sentence her to giving lunches for the Forbes 100 and then speak to them about how she made a huge mistake - - blah blah blah. He said it could save billions of dollars for her to do that instead of jail time.

    yesterday, i was watching tv and saw rosie o’donnel going off on the gay marriage ban that failed in the senate & then she went on to say that martha stewart should never have gone to trial. i don’t agree with the media frezy over this, but just because martha stewart is a celebrity and broke the law doesn’t mean she can go unpunished. the rest of us would have certainly gone to jail if we’d done the same thing and probably for more time.

    Who cares about Martha Stewart? You could probably go to Wal-Mart right now and buy discount Martha Stewart Muffin Pans for like a buck. So, we’re all winners. :wink:

    Cracks me up how K-Mart is having a Martha Stewart sale right now.

    Interest “free” for 5 months? Heh.
