My advice to journalists is: Make unexpected friendships - some of the better stories will be found in the crooks and crannies.<BR/><BR/>Okay, you win on this one. Ms Mastini’s troubles with her ex-brother-in-law and most of all with her sister are the most grabbing and thrilling family saga I’ve ever followed. More, more!<BR/><BR/>> Live outside the box - most journalists socialise with other journalists. Very incestuous. Very dull.<BR/><BR/>Alas, I’m afraid you’re right again. That’s why a huge number of ill-founded rumors end up as “realities” thanks to their private grapevine. Repetition turns the lie into truth. For example, there’s apparently an epidemic of retirements among Hollywood actors these days. Good selling topic, especially meant for the poor workers who’ll be forced to toil until their 75th birthday. <BR/> <BR/>> This maybe one of the reasons why fewer people are interested in dead tree media these days. They sense the decay, the failure to move on.<BR/><BR/>Do you really believe the bloggers are protected against that danger? It seems to me that you’ve sometimes been caught red-handed parroting the official media version. Fortunately, you’ve got a few well-informed readers who succeed in the job you screwed. <BR/><BR/>> 2. I have discovered that one person's reality can be another person's insistence on a line.<BR/><BR/>Good, I can see you’re beginning to get it. It’s called sense of relativity, cara. Apply it to yourself now.<BR/><BR/>> 3. I have not noticed that journalists as a class are especially eclectic in their interests - many members of the so-called media commentariat tend to harp on the same themes week after week and do very nicely, thank you. In contrast Arcati mixes comment with investigation with reviews with personal experience in a manner that would never be tolerated on a newspaper.<BR/><BR/>More comments and personal experience (for the best or the worst) than serious investigation, actually…<BR/> <BR/>> Your comment betrays your own preoccupation with sex and scandal, but projected onto me due to some fascinating psycho-sexual reason. I may need to speak with your therapist.<BR/><BR/>If I had a therapist, I’m sure he’d be delighted to meet such an interesting case as you are. <BR/><BR/>> 4. Journalists and editors, regrettably, are ferocious self- congratulators. Socially, there is nothing to compare with the egotism of hacks and their betters who are riding high on a succeeful rag. It is a sad fact that drive is tied to ego on this planet, though it need not be so vulgar. On a separate point, it should be said that blogs are routinely denigrated by dead tree journalists…<BR/><BR/>There’s nothing to be jealous about, however. Except, for some third-rate hacks, your personal style of writing (which is quite remarkable, as I fairly said already).<BR/> <BR/>> But perhaps my best response to your comment is this: You always come back for more.<BR/><BR/>Ah, touché! I come back for more, indeed… but for more of what? You’ll never know...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-86812875598020825312007-07-03T16:52:00.000+01:002007-07-03T16:52:00.000+01:00If this "Very sad to see this continuing" was as s...If this "Very sad to see this continuing" was as sad about it as s/he claims, s/he could just shut the f*ck up and let the thread die.

What I meant was..it's time to let it go and let Kevin Spacey go. If he doesn't want to support the foundation that's his right, there are other celebrities and individuals out there that will help. I for one would like to hear more about the foundation, what's happening with it, you know the who-what-where-when and how of it...I for one AM truly interested and hope I can help in some way. But I'm beginning to have doubts about a foundation that's only building blocks is "Kevin Spacey is gay" arguments over and over again.....doesn't sound promising.

This has gone entirely too far into the realm of invasion of privacy—not only for Mr. Spacey (which I’ve been harping on about since this whole thing started) but for others as well. <BR/><BR/>Steph, I don’t believe that all the posts you claim are your sister are indeed hers. I think you are conjuring this up in your imagination because you feel attacked. But you must realize that you have invited these attacks by your constant slamming of others – particularly your ex-brother-in-law. Did you really believe that you could say the things you did and NOT get backlash? I cannot believe that you are that naïve. You must have known that people would defend his right to his privacy. Even if what you say about him is true (which I am still very skeptical about) it is cruel of you to air family matters in public when Mr. Spacey has made it clear time and time again that he wishes to keep his private life private. Because you cannot accept that simple wish, you have brought on a maelstrom of hate and venom directed at you. Now you are doing it to your sister. Is there no end to your viciousness? You are displaying the very traits of inhumanity you are supposedly fighting against. Do you not realize that there are other forms of abuse (perhaps even more hurtful) than the physical kind? <BR/><BR/>Please stop this now.<BR/><BR/> JPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-73085912084855186992007-06-30T15:45:00.000+01:002007-06-30T15:45:00.000+01:00Madame, she is my sister, believe me..and if you g...Madame, she is my sister, believe me..and if you go back you will see her style of writing..that's her..how immature..<BR/>everything she says has no voracity.
