Paris Hilton Free at Last!

When was the last time someone's impending release from behind bars received as much attention as what's being given to the freeing of Paris Hilton?

Maybe Nelson Mandela?

He was imprisoned for 27 YEARS!

Hilton was in jail for 23 DAYS.


The Associated Press cries out: " World awaits Paris Hilton's return."

As Paris Hilton counted down her final hours in jail Monday, her reality stint behind bars was about to be replaced by the bizarre, almost fictional qualities that make up her life on the outside.

With Hilton due to be released sometime Tuesday, the Federal Aviation Administration promised to keep a close watch on the paparazzi helicopter pilots expected to track her every move.

"We will be sending inspectors to her neighborhood and to the jail to keep an eye on all the helicopter and perhaps even airplane traffic in the vicinity and make sure all the operations are conducted safely," said FAA spokesman Ian Gregor.

This is insane.

It's disgusting that the media see fit to focus ao much attention and so many resources on Hilton being released from jail today, as if everything else in the world is irrelevant.

It's absolutely nuts.

Look at this:



FOX News is offering live feed on the Internet of Hilton walking out of jail!


See her as she emerges from her imprisonment to breathe free once more!

This does not qualify as breaking news. It's tabloid trash.

Question: Will more people watch the images of Hilton regaining her freedom after those 23 days in captivity than watched her sex video?


The world will probably never know.

UPDATE:
Hilton is out of the slammer. "Sometime Tuesday" turned out to be just minutes after midnight PDT.

LYNWOOD, Calif. -- Paris Hilton left jail Tuesday after a bizarre, three-week stay in which the hotel heiress was briefly released to her Hollywood Hills home, then sent screaming and crying back to a county lockup.

The 26-year-old celebutante walked out of the all-women's jail in Lynwood to an enormous horde of cameras and reporters after midnight. She had checked into the jail largely avoiding the spotlight late June 3 after a surprise appearance at the MTV Movie Awards.

Hilton smiled broadly as she left the jail. It wasn't immediately clear where she was going.

I'm sure that no matter where she goes the press will be there to document her every move.

Larry King must be snapping his suspenders with anticipation.
