I take this personally—seeing as we share the same first
name, and now every time I introduce myself to a girl under the age of 12, she
starts calling me HaMo. I’ve been a silent victim of Miley Cyrus' rampant fame for far too long, and I’m fighting back!
Today’s Washington Post had a story entitled “It’s Hannah Again. Should
We Take This?” At first, I was terrified that the article would be about the
popularity of the name Hannah for baby girls in the past five years. But
what I found was even worse.
Hannah Montana has teamed up with Wal-Mart to
bring tweens everywhere “personalized” wake-up calls and reminders to go
shopping—for back-to-supplies, naturally. The call is free! The only price is having millions of teens
and preteens hear their favorite rockstar remind them to shop at Wal-Mart,
the company that underpays its workers, burdens taxpayers by exploiting public
health care programs and development subsidies, destroys the environment, and tells its workers how to vote: not Democrat.
If Hannah calls, don’t answer!
