Anna Nicole Smith has died mysteriously and without much warning. Okay, she's a celebrity, so this is certainly news, and merits coverage.

But Headline News has gone into "drop everything, even ads, and cover this story continuously" mode on the news. (Edit: due to a lack of anything better to watch, I've had it on in the background for an hour now, and no ads. They ALMOST threw to an ad just now, but were told not to.)

Siiiiigh.

How is it even *possible* to cover it for more than ten seconds?

"Anna Nicole Smith found dead in Florida whereveritwas."
"...still dead."
"...still dead."
"...lemme check... nope, still dead."
"...not getting any livelier."

Lots and lots of file footage, and rehashing of old news stories while waiting for the news conference with the local authorities.
