Great Moments in Journalism



The Daily News goes out on a limb today and endorses local girl (Sherman Oaks) Katharine McPhee for "American Idol":

Ours has long been known as the Valley of Stars, so it's only fitting that one of the brightest stars on America's cultural horizon hails from here.
Katherine McPhee, a Sherman Oaks resident and Notre Dame High School alumna, could become America's next "Idol," having clinched a spot in the reality show's final round, which airs next week.

Simon Cowell, the notoriously cranky "American Idol" judge, described McPhee's Wednesday-night performance of "Over the Rainbow" as the "single best performance of the competition to date."

The American public loves her. Those who know her say she's a phenomenal talent, yet humble and down-to-earth.

In other words, a true Val. McPheever - catch it.

Brave words. The L.A. Times, meanwhile, has not yet said whether it will endorse a candidate in this year's "Idol" race. Voters will go to the polls and elect a new "American Idol" on Tuesday.
