Sheryl Crow was interviewed by the Independent on Saturday. She talks about her experience of political spin; when the media circulated that Crow wanted people not to use so much toilet paper, taken out of it's context from a comic routine as part of a global warming tour.
Crow said, "It was on every news channel as if it was news. It was in Jay Leno's monologue, it was everywhere."
I love the term used in the interview to describe this media disinformation - a circus of distraction. Not sure if the term originated with Sheryl Crow, or the interviewer Sheryl Garratt, but whatever, thanks Sheryl!
