The AP Can't Resist Paris Hilton

The Associated Press just couldn't resist ending its ban on Paris Hilton news. Apparently, it was extremely important to report that the socialite was caught driving with a suspended license.

On Feb. 13, the AP announced that it would not be running any Paris Hilton news the following week, as an experiment. It sounds like a great idea. But more than likely, the AP just wants some attention, and will be milking this Paris ban for all it’s worth.

But the real question is, did anyone actually miss the Paris Hilton news? I know I could live without being bombarded with Paris's antics every day.
