In Unsurprising News today, it's official, Sofia Coppola and Spike Jonze are headed to Splitsville. But this link is more notable for it's many irritating attributes of Celebrity McNews: annoying half-pseudonym of writer ("Joal"? Give me a break); bad puns in headline and opening line; random jokey/tacky reference in last paragraph; breathless, insubstantial tone to rival the best faux journalists. B-l-e-g-h.

Dear god, another example has appeared -- this time for a happier occasion, Danny Elfman's marriage to Bridget Fonda...which surely makes him the envy of all nerdy young composers.

On a related note, check out Banterist's rant, "Making It, Made Easy": "Celebrity of late has been handed out en masse, like driver’s licenses." I'd say it's more like fake I.D. driver's licenses.
