In a series published by The Atlantic that’s basically catnip for media nerds called “What I Read”, media bigwigs periodically talk about, as the title indicates, what they read everyday. This phrase is used loosely; they can also talk about what they watch and listen to, because it’s just a first-person essay about their media diet on a daily basis, the kind of stuff people like me get hot and bothered about but an average Internet lover is probably yawns halfway through. This week’s column is a particularly noteworthy one, not because of its subject, the host of CBS’s This Morning Norah O’Donnell, but because of what she reveals about herself. Which is to say that it appears that at no point during the day does she look at a computer.
Has she discovered The Secret? Let’s walk through O’Donnell’s day:
– She wakes up in the morning and checks her email.
Unlike the plebs, O’Donnell has a team of people who send her stuff she should be reading to start the day, which she looks at on her Blackberry.
– Then she checks Twitter.
Assume this is also on her Blackberry.
