It's inappropriate and needs to be stopped

A television ad for the remake of "The Stepford Wives" includes an image resembling a topless Condoleeza Rice as well as a picture of Hilary Clinton that "morphs" into a grinning housewife bearing a sheet of cookies.

But what you really wanted were profiles of the performers at the center of the porn industry AIDS scare. The article includes this arresting sentence:

Her hair was Audrey Hepburn short, a cut she gave herself the night she set her boyfriend's bed on fire.

Is that a good first sentence of a novel, or what?
