Comedian Tommy Chong, of all people, takes on a talking head about the silliness of the Paris Hilton coverage and draws the mock ire of Stephen Colbert.
Jill Filipovic: I think it’s fascinating that of all the disgusting things Paris Hilton has done, what people are really upset about is the fact that she’s promiscuous.
Jayne Lyn Stahl: Don't get me wrong, I hate Paris Hilton too, but how is it that Augusto Pinochet, was allowed to serve out his days in his mansion, and not a peep was said by anyone?
Courtney E. Martin: The behavior of celebs like Paris Hilton and Linsday Lohan is not only self-destructive but contributes to the destruction of the way a nation of girls frames their limits and possibilities.
