Whoever wrote that article did a terrible job. It sounds more like a biopic than an encyclopedia entry.

/ no, it never occurred to me to try and fix it myself, I just want to complain about it, not do anything useful

Hey, remember when we all thought VJs were here to stay? Yeah, not so much.

You guys can have your Martha Quinn, she was cute and all, but Duff was the VJ who could really rock my socks off.
 
2012-05-23 11:25:25 AM
IMDB says she's been 50 for a year.

Kurt Loder is 67 the 1st episode of The Real World was aired 20 years ago, Beth S. (I looked it up I had a huge crush on her) from the second season is 44 so that means the MTV generation is getting old.

Ugh. It is true. The 90s are longer ago than it seems.

Same here, although MTV was never my bag and I came to know her through talk radio in L.A. I have the soul of a 70-year-old is what I'm saying.

If you can stand alt rock (again, not my bag), you can sometimes hear her voice mornings on 98.7 FM (also available on iHeartRadio). Yes, it is a Clear Channel station.

I'm in the same boat. I immediately went to teh Googles so I could edumacate myself and I left just as ignorant as I was in regards to this person. I take it she was a VJ? Must have been on when I stopped watching MTV when they were showing nothing but rap videos and reality crap.
 
2012-05-23 02:19:34 PM
I don't remember her, either.

And yes, I love Martha Quinn!

How could you people not have seen Dumb & Dumber? Not a large part, but she's in it in all her DSL glory.

I listened to the G. Gordon Liddy Show back in 1993 I think it was. He was out of the studio and broadcasting remote from a broadcasters' convention, speaking with people in the industry who were there, and so forth. Liddy meets up with Kennedy (best if mentally read in his exageratedly masculine, overly dramatic, voice -- I've tried to help by formatting):

G. Gordon Liddy: I understand that you used to be known as "The Virgin Kennedy".
Kennedy: That's correct.
G. Gordon Liddy: Coincidently, I used to be known as "the promiscuous Eisenhower"!

I've never had the tiniest urge to watch that movie.

I've seen Dumb & Dumber, looked her up on Wiki and IMDB, and haven't the foggiest notion who the frell she is. I think the only people who know her are the small percentage who actually gave a shiat about MTV VJs.

Neurosarcoidosis. That's something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. She's lucky to be alive, luckier not to be a vegetable.

She was a panelist on Real Time With Bill Maher a few months back. She hasn't changed. (Hey, I was as surprised as anyone. I thought she'd totally fallen off the radar).

She was intro'd as currently being a Limbaugh wannabe at some radio station in Cali.

That's not quite fair. She is quite progressive on gay rights, and is in favor of gay marriage, so "Limbaugh wannabe" is not accurate.

That's not at all how she presented herself. So if I'm mistaken based on that one 45-minute exposure, I stand corrected.

I didn't see it, but the one controversial point I heard people bring up was her attacks on atheists, rehashing that old tired cliche about atheism also being a religion. I know she thinks like that, and I also know she likes to hide behind her UCLA philosophy degree, as if citing that is supposed to end the argument. Very annoying. But she says she's "libertarian", and is not in favor of religion in government, plus she claimed to dislike Santorum, so she's got that going for her.

I'll admit, I clicked on the link thinking of the GN'R bassist.

Thanks, Iggy!
