which, as I said above
is amazingly fucking hypocritical, given the tabloids are the only body who can really be held accountable for her suicide.

yes, granted.
these things cannot be predicted. But the press manufactured the outrage about the call, so are really the only party that have done anything seriously "morally" wrong.
