Britney just hasn’t had that much impact on my daily life; she’s a capable performer, but too dependent on the star-making machinery to ever really make it on her own. She’s still a cutie, but she’s not at the top of that game anymore, either.

So, frankly, I’m just not that interested in daily reports of her performance as a mother– good, bad, or indifferent.

But the media isn’t getting that message. These days, if Britney takes a bad step or is distracted while caring for her kid, the paparazzi are all over it like, well, like slime on a paparazzo.

Did anyone ever consider that maybe they’re the cause of the distractions?
