Look, kids, it’s ABC attempting to spin the Merry Miller travesty into something fun! Oh joy! In the aftermath of Merry Miller’s butchering of an interview with Holly Hunter (see here), ABC News is doing everything it can to try to “deal” with the situation — by making light of it! Even Miller herself has gotten into the act. Gawker says: “In an attempt to make lemonade out of the lemon that was Merry’s interview with Holly Hunter, ABCNewsNow is holding a contest where the “prize” is a guest shot hosting “What’s the Buzz,” the scene of Merry’s famous flameout.” Har har, good try, boys, but everyone recognizes a FUBAR when they see one.
But I really love this quote from Merry herself, who says:
“The power of the Internet is so [great]. I’m involved in some online ventures, and my gut had told me that [the Internet] was the future of the world [and this proves] that viral marketing has really kicked in. I’m going to take this phenomenon that I created and drive it somewhere.”
Hoo hoo. See, she did it on purpose to “create” viral marketing. Damn, this girl’s a genius!
The only bigger disaster I can think off besides Merry Miller’s interview with Holly Hunter? How about a stoned Britney Spears complaining that she has lock jaw:
