Supposedly big news will be dispersed on tonight’s episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8. As if we didn’t already know. The fall-out over this American family tragedy for lack of a better word – disgusts me.

The coverage of this matter by the media is appalling, however, not surprising — I am sorry to say. Yesterday, ET showed how Kate is losing it and is spanking the kids. It’s splashed all over tabloids too, with shots of Kate in her worst moments looking stressed and miserable. The kids look as confused and sad as you would expect.

The big debate now apparently is whether or not the show would continue on – or should end with the marriage. One entertainment correspondent said that TLC – The Learning Channel – would most likely due anything in its power to ensure the show stays on because the ratings, no doubt, will be astronomical.

Are you kidding me, TLC? Sure lets see this saga unfold through the eyes of these eight innocent children. Will we be allowed to attend their therapists’ visits? Kate’s future cosmetic surgeries? Their dad’s life as a single man living in Manhattan with hair plugs to boot?

So what might we learn through this experience “Learning Channel?” How to make money from other people’s misery, I suppose. Sleep well.
