To television bosses, it may have seemed a moment of onscreen madness.
But to viewers fed up with the whole Paris Hilton saga, it was a long-awaited outbreak of sanity.
American newsreader Mika Brzezinski, co-presenter of MSNBC's Morning Joe programme, refused to read out the story of the celebrity socialite's release from jail ahead of items on Iraq and developments at the White House
Miss Brzezinski then screwed up, shredded and attempted to set fire to the script on air. She told viewers: "I hate it and I don't think it should be our lead. I just don't believe in covering that story, at least not as the lead story on the newscast, when we have a day like today."
She was referring to stories about Iraq and President George Bush's problems with his Republican party.
Miss Brzezinski first screwed up the script and refused to read it
Then, on the next bulletin, she refused to read it again and took a co-presenter's cigarette lighter and tried to burn it.
Later, she refused to read the script for a third time and took it straight to the shredder in the studio, where she fed it into the machine.
When producers played images of Miss Hilton leaving jail in Los Angeles, where she served a sentence for a probation violation after her drink- driving conviction, Miss Brzezinski was shown with her head in her hands as the cameras returned to the studio

Voltaire said: "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
H.L.Mencken wrote:"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.â€
