Mathew's comments: Amanda goes boom on HBO and ABC

    I must admit, I'm not really seeing anything to this, other than the unsurprising lesson that attractive people are sought after for video spokes-gigs. Oh, that and that magazines sell better when they cover celebrities, of whatever grade.

    I think it's more than just the idea that attractive people are sought after for video things, Rob -- I think in many ways the Web is taking its place alongside other outlets (like community television and local TV weather reports) as a source of those attractive people. Not exactly a breakthrough in journalism, perhaps :-) But interesting nevertheless.

    Well, that was my point. It's really a talent scout for modelling agencies kind thing. Well, models who can read.
