“Hilton” In The CNN.com’s Top Headlines

It took them a while, but CNN International finally decided that the latest news about Paris going to Rwanda is worthy enough to put its headline on top of CNN International (edition.cnn.com)’s front page, next to a picture of a smiling US Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, who works for the world’s #1 terrorist, Bush, greeting Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas.

The latest Hilton news was well published on the internet, but it didn’t become a very popular news item. I’m surprised that CNN put a headline on top, but they love adding Hilton headlines all the time, and I love seeing them. However, that doesn’t mean CNN is pro-Paris!

I also wanted to mention that there a few haters who are even criticizing her doing good, not the “smarter” haters, but more the idiotic-type ones. One argument is that she’s doing this just so she can show us that she has changed when she hasn’t (according to haters). Or that if she really cared about Rwanda, she souldn’t be bragging about her trip. Whether she really cares or not isn’t important at this point. Just the fact that she’s doing something good, she should be praised for it.

Now the ones who say that she should keep her mouth shut and just go there without anyone knowing about it just don’t make sense. Paris is using her celebrity power to bring attention to wartorn Rwanda. One of these days, I’ll make a page about Rwanda. Paris has done charity work many times in the past, but her work just doesn’t get mentioned. People often use my “Charity Work” page to inform people about her charity work. So yes, it is essential that these things be mentioned in the media. And a reality show about her trip is a medium to inform the world regarding her work and the situation in Rwanda and in many other African countries. This is a very idea, but most importantly, her trip needs to be effective with productive results, so we’ll be watching closely…
