At the end of the video, did the lady news anchor say: “It’s time to […] now to something more substantial on our program (or product?)?”

So I guess that was sort of a diss to Paris, like Paris news is not substantial or important?

Any sort of news about any celebrity is hardly substantial or important news, to be fair.

the australian news people are like that when it comes to any pointless celebrity news story. i love seeing Paris on the news, but its not over necessary. I can understand why they’d say comments like that. Literally they go from “terrorists killed 100 people, including 55 kids” …. “our next story is paris hilton getting on a privet jet”

Why show it if they’re going to diss it afterwards? It may not be world important news to everyone but it’s still news to people who follow celebrities. Either it’s not worth showing at all, or they should respect the fact that some people will be interested. It seems to me that it’s only Paris who is dissed in this way (or at least there’s other celebrities who do get a free pass).

Personally I don’t find sport the slightest bit substantial.

yer, it is a bit rude and not necessary but they show it because people are interested in Paris. It doesnt mean its news worthy, it still gets showed because thats what people want to see and it pulls in the numbers.

and i find sport pointless aswel, but a hell of a lot more people are interested in it.

it was rude but seriously, settle down guys. it happens all the time.
