Advantage? So what? I don't understand why that matters. Generally, the doc made me feel sorry for them. And I knew it would raise all this "skilled" manipulators of the media" bullshit - my bugbear. All that stuff; it's so completely dehumanising, not because it degrades the individual in question, but rather because it doesn't allow for a 3D interpretation of real world events. People in the media just aren't the arch-schemers some people think they are - that's just entertaining fantasy - most of the time they're a bit of a mess, esp. when they've had their lives ransacked by the tabloids for as many years as the Hamiltons (regardless of whether they co-operated and/or made any money out of it). The Hamilton's "deft manipulation of the media" struck me as a clumsy bloody shambles. Crocodile tears? God, why is it so easy (inspite of a whole life's worth of evidence to the contrary) to believe that the world is actually really very simple, controlled by heirarchies of conspiracy? Eh? Tell me that, eh? TELL ME! EH!?!
EH?!?!!
P.S. This little rant has nothing to do with the Hamiltons, it's really a rail against the media constructed mindset that see's everything in terms of simple narratives....
