UPDATE: This morning Blakk Frogg learned that the Associated Press (AP) has retracted the Paris Hilton elephant story . Wow. One has to guess, then, that they had nothing better to report on that day.

Apparently they couldn’t find anything to say about….. rising gas prices, the recent increase in chlamydia cases in the United States, the fact that 40% of people surveyed recently don’t know AIDS has a 100% kill rate, the obvious instability of the stock market, millions of people losing their homes as a result of crappy/shady loan agreements, the cost of living rising WAY above the average person’s income level, etc.

On a happier note, you can read Blakk Frogg’s take on the original, now retracted, Paris Hilton story below:

——————

Big surprise everyone! Paris Hilton made the news again…. only this time for something a bit more noble than performing poorly in a homemade pornographic movie. Of all the strange news articles that have come across Blakk Frogg’s computer screen in recent days, this one certainly did make him say….. What the Fuck?!?!?

Taken from MSN.Com on 11/13/07:

GAUHATI, India — Paris Hilton is being praised by conservationists for highlighting the problem of binge-drinking elephants in northeastern India.

Activists said a celebrity endorsement such as Hilton’s was sure to raise awareness of the plight of the pachyderms that get drunk on farmers’ homemade rice beer and then go on a rampage.

“The elephants get drunk all the time. It is becoming really dangerous. We need to stop making alcohol available to them,” the 26-year-old socialite said in a report posted on World Entertainment News Network’s Web site. Her comments were picked up by other Web sites and newspapers around the globe.

Last month, six wild elephants that broke into a farm in the state of Meghalaya were electrocuted after drinking the potent brew and then uprooting an electricity pole.

“There would have been more casualties if the villagers hadn’t chased them away. And four elephants died in a similar way three years ago. It is just so sad,” Hilton was quoted as saying in Tokyo last week. She was in Tokyo to judge a beauty contest. (finish reading the article here)

Blakk Frogg’s turn to speak, now… Why the HELL do people pay so much attention to this chick? Why couldn’t she use her ‘media pull’ to publicize another issue OTHER than drunken elephants on the rampage in India?

Granted Blakk Frogg feels VERY bad for the deceased elephants and all the people whose lives got mangled by the inebriated beasts, but get real, folks. No one outside of a 5 mile radius of where the drunken elephants went on a rampage gave a rat’s ass about this story until a socialite with a penchant for porn mentioned it in an interview.

So ask yourselves…. Did you REALLY care about the elephants or the people or did you hope to hear where you could find a new photo showing Paris’ highly publicized pubic region somewhere in that article when you read it?

We ALL know the answer to THAT question…..
