Bought my local "national" newspaper this morning. On my second skim through
it I finally noted an article on page 6 purportedly relating to "katrina" -
a picture of Oprah comforting Julia Roberts. I am confused??
Am I being too cynical here? Are celebrities clamouring to claim first hand
experience of this situation to validate the "cv" for the Hollywood versions
which are probably already scripted?
Dave
p.s. a grammatical query. Is it "unamerican" or "un-American"?
