Paris Hilton gets out of jail Tuesday and she won't be on the cover of US Weekly on Friday?
How, short of the Apocalypse, is this possible? "When it came down to it, the staff and I felt what I believe a lot of people in America are feeling. Which is just enormous Paris fatigue," US Weekly editor Janice Min said Tuesday.
As a result, Hilton not only won't be on the cover, there won't even be a mention of her in the magazine.
"I don't think," Min joked, "we even mention the city of Paris."
As a reality check, it's worth noting that People magazine won the rights to the first post-jail magazine interview with the celebutante.
This YouTube clip shows MSNBC anchor Mika Brzezinski rebelling against the Hilton story.
I like this June 8 Jay Leno clip of MSNBC interrupting its wall-to-wall coverage of Paris Hilton to let its audience know that Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, had been dumped.
