what a wonderful world

This past Sunday I got a rare opportunity to watch The Simpsons "live." The episode, which is swirling around the blogosphere, was a ho-hum sendup of gay marriage (which, as this month's Harpers Index points out, would bulk up the wedding industry by about $17 billion if legitimized nationally).

But the disclaimer: more farcical than the episode itself.

Parental Advisory: This show contains discussion of same-sex marriage.

I have a hunch that it was included as a dig, that it wasn't a "real" disclaimer. (At least, I hope so.) Only Rupert Murdoch knows.

Meanwhile, Ed Brayton has the best post I've seen yet on the Gannon/Guckert affair. Pravda means truth!
