save martha?

martha stewart has a "grassroots effort" out there trying to help rally support for her.

ok, kids. first of all: FUCK MARTHA STEWART. if a star breaks the law, the star should be treated like any other law breaker out there. she's innocent right now as no charges have been brought against her officially. that said, there is no secret agenda with people out to get her. she is NOT a victim. maybe if she was not such a well-known bitch behind the camera, more people would be openly supportive of her right now.

second of all, I'll bet martha is behind the grass roots site. after her infamous debacle on CBS This Morning where she noted she would rather focus on her salad than answer questions about IMClone, she called in the troops. Public relations/crisis communications experts (sadly, I know this as I am in public relations). This web site smacks of professional design/backing and part of a larger strategy to sway attention towards Martha's GOOD THING image. Whomever she hired is good. Noting how there are bigger criminals out there and we should not persecute Martha is a good strategy, but she should simply NOT get special treatment. Let the courts settle this one.

ritual de lo adicto

cannot say enough for the addicted blogger's community that Brad created. Brad describes it as "a collaborative journaling project for addicts and alcoholics seeking recovery from the chains of addiction." It just went up and, as one of the four contributors, I am blown away by it. Stay tuned for more shameless promotion of this project as "it's a good thing."
