Sanford the Luckiest Man of the Day?
June 26, 2009
On a day when our govenor was sure to be further scrutinized, if not skewered, by the national media two former A-List celebrities steal the spotlight with their untimely deaths. While small consolation for the embattled executive and his spokesman Joel Sawyer, they can at least take solace in being nudged out of the leading story slot by Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.
Instead of embarrassing footage covering steamy e-mails and understandably snarky comments from Sanford’s wife, we’ll be watching extensive retrospectives of the high profile careers of Fawcett and Jackson.
If I were in his shoes, I’d be grateful for any small break that comes my way – surely this is one story the local media will keep it’s claws dug into like an osprey on a spottail.
