Publication: TMZ online
Date: 14 Apr. 2010
I'm already calling People magazine The Gold Standard, which is too bad, because I now realize there is something much, much better, but it's not a supermarket rag. The website TMZ is the most reliable source of gossip available because they actually put links to court documents.
We've had the word "divorce" thrown around a lot of times in the past few months, but divorce is a legal matter and a record of it has to be made public. Larry King is divorcing his wife Shawn. They were married since 1997, which means she was the first of his wives to last more than ten years. When they married, he was 66 and she was 34, so the Sophisticated French Rule (half your age plus seven) was broken.
I've seen people online complain about how sleazy TMZ is, but in truth the website is head and shoulders above any other source I've seen because they back their stuff up IN WRITING. Because of this unique approach, I am giving them the new nickname of The Paper Trail, and I recommend my readers take what they read on TMZ more seriously than other gossip sources, especially when they produce court documents.
