I was peeping the news from L.A. along with Kathleen Wallace’s recent Substack column about Boss Media hand-wringing over the fate of film and TV stars whose homes were lost in the fires which got my brain sizzling, but the final inspiration was overhearing some smarmy, plaintive woman’s voice on MSNBC talking about people whose homes and neighborhoods lay in smoking ashes, burning schools and playgrounds, people who’d lost everything and had to evacuate with nothing but what they could shove into a bag, living in their cars, living in tents — and it sounded for all the world as if she were describing Gaza, except she was talking about goddamned L.A. …and I thought of News Nation, CNN, the L.A. Times and Associated Press clutching their pearls and moaning OH, WON’T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE STARS…?
