The media is either incredibly fickle, or they act at the behest of interests to protect the (ex) Governor of New York Eliot Spitzer, or both.

Notice how the attention is being directed away from the Gov?  Notice how all the attention is on the woman he hired to fuck him?

And we, the audience, lap it up like kittens to a saucer of milk.  “Ooh, she left a broken home when she was 17.  And aah, she has a couple of songs and a FaceBook page and a MySpace page.  And holy schnikes, she’s rather attractive and looks very fuckable, and you *know* she puts out too!  $1000 an hour?  Yeah, I can see that.”

Meanwhile, what should be the focus of all this, the hypocritical Eliot Spitzer, has faded into the background noise.  Spitzer must have some very powerful friends.

Um… a Facebook page?  A MySpace page?  Been doing a little extra credit homework have we?
