DEAR GOD, SOMETHING IS KILLING ALL OF OUR HILLBILLIES!

So CNN's Paula Zahn is on TV right now feigning concern over the fate of young, dumb white kids engaged in the "epidemic" of back-yard wrestling.

"What could possess these young people to participate in an activity that could cripple or even KILL them?"

I don't know, bitch. Have you ever BEEN to West Virginia?

Looks to me like a hell of a lot more fun than chewing Skoal and playing grab-ass in the parking lot of the local Hardee's. (Although that does sound fun right about now…)

What gets me is that the tenor of the piece is very much like the one's exposing the rural meth "epidemic." By that I mean the subtext suggests that, "Yeah, these are just white-trash briar-hoppers, but before you know it they'll be doing it in Prince George's County, and our best and brightest will be at risk!"

"Talk to your kids today, Yuppie! BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!"

Fuck you, Paula Zahn.
