On her book tour in Palm Beach, Florida, Judith Miller explains that "journalists get things wrong every day."

Who knew that reporting in Florida was so in-depth that it would actually enforce the topics the paper is covering:

• Palm Beach Daily News: "People want reality that tells them how right they are all the time."

• Palm Beach Post: "Increasingly, people choose the outlets that give them the reality that they want."

• Sun-Sentinel: "People want a reality that tells them they're right all of the time."

Or, you know, maybe it's just that whole theory of relativity thing. What is reality these days, anyways?

Bloggers aren't real, conversations between the Mayor of New Orleans and Martin Luther King aren't real, WMDs don't exist, and JT LeRoy isn't real. Nor is James Frey's crack house, Interviews in Business Week, or Jessica Simpson's face …

You know what is real though? Nicole Richie's anorexia. Scary photos after the jump.
