Miss Jena Nesbitt
Press Ignores Paris Hilton
[Edit]
[Edit]
Did you feel you were missing out on Paris Hilton at all this month? I doubt it, because I surely didn’t notice her absence from my news ticker. After a week long “black out” of Paris Hilton, CNN covers the story of her ban from news. Rather ironic, somewhat funny… Who knows what will come of this, maybe she’ll be totally banned from the news, now that would be funny.
 The experiment began on February 19. A few days before, the AP had written from Austria about Hilton's appearance at the Vienna Opera ball, just ahead of her 26th birthday. We didn't cover her weekend birthday bash in Las Vegas.
During "blackout week," the AP didn't mention Hilton's second birthday party at a Beverly Hills restaurant, at which a drunken friend reportedly was ejected by security after insulting Paula Abdul and Courtney Love. And editors asked our Puerto Rico bureau not to write about her visit there to hawk her fragrance. However, her name did slip into copy unintentionally three times, as background: in stories about Britney Spears, Nicole Richie, and even in the lead of a story about Democrats in Las Vegas.
