If Britney Spears or Alanis or Fred Durst ever called PJ or Tori "faggy and stupid" - I'd wanna crucify them - but Kristen Hersh says it and I'm like: "Oh...maybe she's just making a point..she means something different..she doesn't really mean faggy and stupid." I'm fucked eh? God damn those double-standards. I'm guilty. Dan. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2002 00:05:06 -0700 From: Nick Nelson Subject: Re: support-system-digest V5 #84 I noticed this too, I don't think it's merely the record company trying to get a boost in Liz's popularity by appearing with Sheryl. Also did everyone notice the kiss at the end (lips not cheek)? As for the song they did, I think it sounds like it could be an outtake from WCSE. I've never really been a Sheryl Crow fan (never minded her, either), but I wonder why there's a lot of animosity towards her here.

You can listen to it in real audio here http://search1.npr.org/opt/collections/torched/atc/data_atc/seg_142436.htm And there is a transcript here http://www.pbs.org/now/transcript/transcript_clearc.html Though actually seeing how the on-air personality puts together shows for stations across the country does add something. You may still be able to see NOW on some PBS stations. Salon has also done some excellent reporting on Clear Channel http://www.salon.com/ent/clear_channel/ - ----------------------------- Steve Rhodes http://www.well.com/~srhodes contributor to http://www.tvbarn.com http://www.tvbarn.com/docs/- Docs on TV - -- http://fastmail.fm - the way e-mail *should* be ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V5 #85 ***********************************
