Oh how this disgusts me

But of course, the media can't get enough of this story:

Police say the so-called "Barbie Bandits," who robbed a Cobb County bank while hiding behind smiles and sunglasses, have been unmasked.

Cobb County police announced the arrest of two young women Thursday night, along with a new twist: The girls, who were initially thought to be as young as 16, are actually 19 and allegedly were working in cahoots with the bank teller.

Because it was an inside job, Ashley Miller and Heather Johnson, both of Fulton County, were charged with theft but not bank robbery — the only bit of silver lining for the women.

The disgusting part in all of this? Moral decline? Making crime seem "trendy?" Sure, that and...

You know, in 3 months, when these two little flat-bellies have finished their probation, community service at Al's soup kitchen, or whatever the judge slaps on the back of their hands, FHM, Maxim, probably even Playboy are going to be calling them up, offering them thousands if not millions to flaunt their bodies. We* have turned them in to celebrities for committing a crime! (*I say "we" here, though it should probably be "they," the media. However, the media is only feeding us what we ask for - we're a celebrity culture)

It's just creating another Anna Nicole - telling women that they're more valued for what's between their shoulders and legs than what's in their heart and head.
