The Lifetime channel is making it very clear that it’s sick and tired of being a punchline B-list comediennes use when talking about what they do when they get dumped or are on their periods.

Wal-Mart is claiming its decision to drop nearly 1,000 magazines is part of its recent ???green??? initiative. Incidentally, as far back as October, 2006 Wal-Mart had ???analyzed sales performances by title for every individual retail store and calculated the appropriate allocation for each store to support sales and minimize returns.???

Well, 78 isn???t too late to try to change a legacy. Because convincing us that she???s not responsible for us getting misty when we see a celebrity under soft lighting is going to be harder after she???s dead.
