Opportunism at Its Worst

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 21, 2010

Sometimes there are just so many things going on in the world that fuel my cynicism that it’s hard to sort them out to write about them. There were a ton of stories out there this week that increased my lack of faith in humanity, but none more so than the Jesse James infidelity story.

My issue isn’t even about the actual cheating. Sad but true, infidelity isn’t all that shocking especially coming from the celebrity world. Was it right? No. Should Jesse James feel bad? Yes. Is it a horrible thing for a couple to have to go through? Most definitely.

But in a sad testament to my own cynicism, it’s hardly a blip on my radar. The part of this story that does set me off, however, is the timing of the story coming out. Or to clarify, the timing of Michelle McGee deciding to announce to the world that Jesse James cheated with her.
