if they news says it, it must be true

This Lauren Scruggs story has bothered me for awhile now but today even more so.  I watched a welcome back intro video she did for AOL.  The first thing she did was say her name and then “I was hit by an airplane propeller”.  No bitch, I think you mean you walked into it.

Next she tells how she was a “fashion journalist” and during the past year the news media has been describing her as a fashion blogger.

At the time I looked up her site and it was about 17 posts covering about 7 or 8 months time with her taking pictures in her back yard of some outfit she got at TJ Max or some other bargain discount place.  Not high fashion or remotely professional. It was seriously her in her back  yard.  And as far as the site goes, it’s a fucking wordpress blog with no design and they can’t even bother to tag or put categories on their post.  Seriously their posts are ‘uncategeorized’ the default no category for all wordpress installs.  They post a lot of pages from other magazines like vogue.  How the fuck does scanning and posting a picture from Vouge magazine make you a fashion journalist?

 

These pics somehow make her a journalist and model?

Well fuck.  What can I say?  The media has hit a new low.  But I guess that does make for a better sounding headline than the real thing …. dumb blonde bitch wasn’t fucking paying attention, big shock there huh?  Walks her dumb ass into the airplane propeller after getting off the plane, probably drunk.

She’s kinda hot so we want to talk about this story but we need to somehow justify it so we’ll call her a fashion blogger and model which we’ll keep saying, and maybe if we say it enough times it will be true.
