Nothing Is Sacred Anymore….Not Even Divorce
By: John Vinson
As the “Internet Age” keeps evolving and growing, information moves as the speed of “blog”. On the internet, anyone can be a star, or voice their opinions and be heard. Unfortunately, you have to take the bad with the good when perusing through sites. The greatest example of this “good vs. evil” fight, comes by the way of YouTube. You could say that this site is the “Hollywood” of the internet. There have been videos that have been viewed by millions, with no more content than someone whining about Britney Spears, or a baby laughing at ripping paper. Ok, the baby example probably should be viewed by millions, as you can’t help but smile when you see it.
All of this viewing brings us to the topic of the day; divorce. Tricia Walsh Smith, a former actress has used YouTube as a catapult to garner sympathy about her divorce from Philip Smith. Mr. Smith just happens to be the president of the largest Broadway Theater company, so he definitely has a reputation to uphold. Mrs. or Ms. Smith, depending on when you drop the “Mrs.” in a divorce, launched a YouTube video bringing all kinds of personal drama that accompanies divorce into the internet limelight. Instead of going into detail about what she said, I’ll just let you see for yourself. Be forewarned, like many things on YouTube you’ll be watching a personal train wreck. What’s really sad is that by adding all the links, and the video to my site I’m just adding fuel to the proverbial fire.
