I never really cared that much for the great media machine anyway. It has always seemed to me that she was a bit overrated. And, to put herself in the camp of celebrities like Barbara “the ignorant” Streisand is probably not the best move for her. I feel that it will (and already has) alienate many of her loyal viewers, subscribers, and readers.

Seems pretty arrogant. Share and Enjoy: These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages.
