We all know CNN made headlines by scoring the Paris Hilton exclusive [Ed: After ABC and NBC pulled out] but now we're wondering, who has the best post-interview media commentary?

To answer this question, we've sorted through a variety of prominent (and less prominent) outlets to find out what everyone thought of Hilton's not-at-all-publicity-driven attempt to prove that her three weeks behind bars have made her a "better person."

Not surprisingly, the critics weren't buying it for a second.

The Washington Post's Tom Shales grabs our attention right off the bat with the penultimate headline, "Paris Hilton, Free To Speak Her Mind (Such as It Is)." And naturally, it doesn't end there.

"It was also hard at times to determine which had less depth: King's questions or Hilton's answers," writes Shales.

Ouch. Meanwhile, Mediabistro's FishbowlNY likewise doesn't pull any punches.

"Larry asked the questions he had to," writes Fishbowl. "Not the tough ones, of course, but he was serviceable, in the damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't spot King dealt himself. At least he didn't call her George."

Hollywood Reporter arguably had the best lede, managing to mock Paris Hilton's fledgling film career and simultaneously point to the insipid nature of her heart-to-heart with Larry King.

Paris Hilton told Larry King that she has two films lined up for the summer. It is absolutely inconceivable that she will perform in either of them any better than she did while dodging King's mostly superficial questions on Wednesday night.

But it's Tina Brown who scores top honors today. Brown, who admittedly has the self-serving agenda of promoting her bestselling bio, "The Diana Chronicles," nevertheless makes the most astute observation about Hilton we've heard in a long time.

Writes Brown:

One of the things that makes me nuts in interviews for my book tour on "The Diana Chronicles" is the question: "Is Paris Hilton the Princess Diana of today?" Aside from the blond hair there is no one on the planet more unlike Diana than Paris.

Ms. Hilton's defining moment was a webcam video of herself with a loomin phallus in her mouth, whereas Lady Diana Spencer at the age of 19 was beet-red-faced with embarrassment when a tabloid photographer snapped her with her infant charge outside a nursery school in a pose against the sunlight that revealed her shapely legs.

After all, what is an article about Paris Hilton without the phrase "loomin phallus," anyway?
