Delgadillo girls on Good Morning America and in People
Anyone catch this segment this morning? Posters on the GMA message board did, although ABC wants people to pay to be able to watch their segments online. A text version of the story is also available.
Surprisingly (to me, at least), the televised segment didn’t include anything from Iraq — in fact, the only picture of the Delgadillo parents was one we ran in the Hesperia Star months ago. If you’re ABC News and have one of the few reporters in Iraq, it seems like it’d be worth your time to go film the parents and get their side of the story or, even better, set up a live interview from both Iraq and Southern California simultaneously. Yeah, this might have meant bumping the show a few days to accomodate military realities, but it would have been a much stronger segment overall, I think, and it would have been something that neither People Magazine nor Telemundo would have been able to duplicate.
The Delgadillos’ issue of People Magazine is on newstands today, with the cover story “Inside Britney’s Breakdown.” I’m pretty sure the folks at Von’s now question my masculinity, since I just bought a People with Britney on the cover and a Snickers. Maybe I should have gotten some motor oil at the same time.
As expected, People has a very warm-and-fuzzy take on things, which is what they excel at. It’s got some good photos — and again, a familiar photo of the parents — some good new details, like Audrey’s tattoo with her sisters initials on her wrist and some good quotes.
All that’s left that I know about (and it’s likely there’s more than I don’t know about) is some news story on Telemundo.
And now I’ve just gotten an e-mail from Seventeen magazine …
