Oh my, I've covered all types of stories from hard news to entertainment...but on friday i truely thought i was going to get hurt in the crush of photographers trying to get video of paris hilton's parents leaving the courthouse. I will say I did get the only response at that point from her mom which was "i was paris-ized".

i take that to mean because it was paris, paris got more than any other person charged with a similar crime.

what do you think? and what do you think of the coverage given to this? i know this isn't the most orignial of questions, but i've really been wondering how i feel about it all, having been one of the people who actually watched her behavior in court.

i will tell you something is clearly wrong with her medically, she was either too medicated or the amount of her medications were off. i know this from first hand experience, i have a sister who sadly in a mental health ward of a hospital as we speak, and what i saw in court is identical to how my sister is much of the time.

i feel any other person in paris' position would not have recieved jail time, that the jail is full of people with mental health issues and it's bothersome if they're not getting the help they need, that paris has thumbed her nose at authority, that prisoners aren't yanked around the way paris has been yanked around, that paris asking for people to pay attention to other things now is odd when her fame is because she asked people to pay attention to her.

so as you can see it's just one of those topics i think that will always have people divided, in the end i am not really sure how i feel!

oh and i promised reviews of more of the new fall lineup...that will come next monday!

have a great week...and yes jules i remember interviewing you...good luck!

i don't think paris likes the idea of everyone trying to get video footage of her when she has hit rock bottom. i doubt anyone would. but many viewers are loving it. they feel like she's a rich snob that has had everything just handed to her. so the idea of watching her suffer is great. i don't really care if you guys cover it or not. i'm not on her side, or against her. i'm more angry at the special treatment that she's getting from the sheriff. i also think it sucks for her because she got the whole 45 day sentence after the judge said 23 days. but i thought it was a horrible idea to let her be under house arrest. her house is a grown up play ground. that's not a punishment, that's a dull vacation.

don't feel bad covering this lisa b. just go in, do your job, and give the people what you think they want.

The crush of photogs??!!! INSANE! no wonder this girl is all screwed up! who cares? why all the emphasis on "HER"? Shes not the problem or issue. The justice system, how it runs and how it treats everyone is whats important. NOT WETHER I SEE A PIC OF ANYONE CRYING. DUH. Can we focus on the real issues and forget P----? She's not the story. Never was! who made her one? THE MEDIA. Becasue from the looks of it, Americans couldn't possibly care LESS about her. agian DUH! DOES THE MEDIA GET IT NOW? WITH THIS NEW AGE OF TECHNOLOGY WHERE WE CAN EXPRESS OURSELVES BETTER, CAN MSM FINALLY SEE WHAT IT IS THAT AMERICANS REALLY WANT AND ARE INTERESTED IN?

"many viewers are loving it. "

I don't think so samo, I think most people are sick of all this. What they are loving is the fact that it has been proven that EVERYONE can be held accountable. EVEN THE RICH!

Lisa, please read my most recent blog posting. You will find I have doggedly stuck by what I have said from day one before anyone else even picked up on it. Here is my most recent posting on the issue.

By the way Lisa, I used to drive past Lodi on the way up towards Sacramento 5 times a year. Its that other California, the peaceful and quiet one, the grand country within California most people can only dream about in the L.A. rat race!

Oh here is my earlier blog posting too.

Honestly the entire socialite scene is to blame, and that is the result of an entertainment complex in this country filled with illegal drugs and booze.

I think Paris got what she deserved. She's not behind bars for simply breaking the law (which she has done several times) but for having no regard for it. She was lucky to merely get put on probation for her earlier offenses. I don't feel sorry for her, nor should anyone. Unlike most celebs who commit crimes, she's going to do some time.

She was claiming to suffer from a Staff infection that she "claims" to have received the moment she walked in there. My mother is an inmate in the same jail and her bunk mate is both HIV positive and suffers from Hepatitis C. If my mother has to live in the same cell as her for 6+ months...then Paris can stay in her little cell separated from all other inmates (because she was) for a messily 23 days. I'm outraged by this and it make me sick that "Hollywood" or the spooks people for the media are claiming her sentence was too harsh. But what everyone keeps forgetting is she wasn’t caught not once but TWICE for driving on a suspended license after her DUI. And the only reason why her sentence was so much was because she was caught lying in court by saying she wasn't aware it was suspended. When the first officer made her sign an acknowledgment stating she was aware it was suspended...and the second time she was pulled over she tried to claim she wasn't aware it was suspended, when the officer found the smoking gun in the glove department box. The acknowledgement from the previous stop. I have no sympathy for her because my mother has been sitting in Lynwood for 1 year and 4 months for a crime similar to hers and she was innocent. But she's not getting any of the special treatment Paris is getting. She's famous for being a nobody and us “the people”, press and media are making her infamous for being a nobody. I would like her to come out of this a humble person and put some of that money to a good cause...and not on close she'll only wear once and going out partying every nigh

oh ok now P---- finds God! well I can only hope she is honest about that, cause I knew if she was in there long enough she would! If your looking for Jesus, go to jail right? EVERYBODY FINDS HIM THERE. I don't believe her. well see. for her sake, I hope she did.

How about we all focus on the real and important issues and no longer care about celebs? Its a win win, they get their "privacy" and we don't have to hear about them! Then we can focus on whats IMPORTANT. I still can't believe those photogs getting run over and stepping over each other! pathetic! aren't they embarrased? is there not one honorable or decent job they can get into? how sad :-(

Hello LISA ,
It may seem as if PARIS is having it rough but the only rough time she is having is dealing with not having a servant , wear panties , text messaging driving under the influence , drinking , saying thats so hot and dancing on tables.
All convicts go in as bad a---s and come pout GOD FEARING .
Her sentence was not too harsh. Our laws are have never ever been enforced the same for everyone. If they were than all punishments would be the same for all but just look at each individual person being sentenced for the same crimes one could get 6 months for a robbery and another could get 6 years .
It is very rare that the punishment fits the crime.
SOME PEOPLE DO NEED HARSHER PUNISHMENTS AS PARIS DOES . SHE WAS TAKING THIS AS IF IT WAS A JOKE AND SHE COULD JUST FLASH HER PEARLY WHITES AND WALK AWAY. SOMETIMES REALITY HURTS .
But she is still getting away with too much. HER SPECIAL TREATMENT WILL KEEP GOING ON AND SHERIFF BACA WILL MAKE SURE SHE GETS WHAT SHE WANTS.
BY THE WAY WHAT WAS THAT MYSTERY ILLNESS PARIS HAS?
i bet the cure for that is a kleenex and a-- kissing.
BACA hsa never fully explained why he needed to "PROTECT" MS. HILTON.
I think he was just showing favortism. How many other "CELEBS" has he shown favortism to? I wonder.
WEL LISA LOVE YOU AND LOVE THE SHOW KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. MY HUBBY AND I LOVE IT WHEN THE CAMERAS ARE SHOWING DIFFERENT SHOTS OF ALL YOU DANCING. YOU ARE A FUN GROUP AND WE WISH YOU MANY YEARS OF SUCCESS!!!
AN ADORING FAN.

I'm not a Paris fan but I have to say keeping her in jail has created quite a mess. How is the sheriff dept supposed to run the place with all this chaos? Also, getting her parents in and out at least helps get others in to see their family members without being crushed. And who wants to guess how many more visits are being made by people now that this is going on just so they can be part of the hoopla? It's a mess. The judge did L.A. no favors with his sentence.

ooooohhh its such an inconvenience for the city, oh no boo hoo hoo.
IT WOULD BE WORSE IF THE LITTLE DARLING CONTINUED HER MALICIOUS BEHAVIOR AND HURT OR KILLED SOMEONE! ESPECIALLY A CHILD! WHEN I THINK OF THE SELFISH AROGANT PEOPLE THAT PUT OTHERS IN DANGER.....WELL, THEY JUST BETTER HOPE NOT TO EVER HURT ONE OF MINE. JAIL WOULD BE PROTECTION...FROM ME.

You're just mean all over the place. No need to yell. I am mainly wondering how many more people are showing up for visits than normal now that there are cameras around. Just another reason to complain.
