My butt gets bigger every time I see her on TV. I'm about 4,000 lbs now.

Too true.
The thing is, it isn't that this story isn't newsworthy -- in context and proportion. But it's just plain crazy to treat it as the news story night after night after week after week after month after month.
And sure I just had lunch, but after reading the most recent posts, I could really go for a plate of Paula Deen's hoecakes right about now.

This story breaks my heart more than just about any other story currently on the news, probably because Caylee was about the age of my daughter and I can relate so easily. I fortunately don't have much time to watch the news these days so I haven't had to see much of the coverage.

OMG - have you tried her Gooey Chocolate Butter Cookies? Best. Cookies. Ever.

This reminds me of "Gooy Buns," or whatever they were. Even though Paula Deen is cute, awesome, and addicted to butter, I can't eat anything with the word "gooey" in it.

Whenever anyone mentions Paula Deen, I think of this Anthony Bourdain post:

Believe it or not, I'm not much of a chocolate fan. Really don't like chocolate cake, cookies or ice cream. And like Munchkin said, the "gooey" in the name carries way too many negative GC connotations.

I can only reference Nancy Grace's show, but most of the time her show is a repeat. So I wouldn't say that it was "newsworthy" night after night, but Nancy Grace is lame enough to show like one 'episode' of her show and then put it on repeat week after week.
Once I realized that (i mean, it couldn't be breaking news when she showed it like 2 weeks ago! lol) I stopped tuning in.
ETA: I'm totally going to try Paula Deen's "roasted Turkey." It look soo good.
