It's a tie!

Why the media continues to cover every little thing Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell have to say about each other boggles the mind, doesn't it? And yet, here we are, watching clips like this one replayed over and over this week.



Just as ludicrous, the case of the New Hampshire family that's mad at Tigger for slapping the family's teen-aged boy with his furry paw. How many times have you watched this on your local news? And how many times have you wondered why you're watching it?



These were your biggest wastes of news space this week. The items that distracted us from what really matters, as the media dedicated televised minutes and print inches every day to these trivial pursuits. Ugh.
