disney takes advantage of hannah montana

The Disney Corporation has complained that Vanity Fair took advantage of a 15-year old (Miley Cyrus) in order to sell magazines. Disney, which operates a muli-million dollar a year juggernaut known as the Hannah Montana Show, knows all about taking advantage of young folks to sell them things. Tickets to Hannah Montana concerts frequently run close to $1000 on the open market.

We're left with another fake controversy to ease the addled minds of those facing foreclosure. The only thing this controversy really serves to prove is that Billy Ray Cyrus (her father and manager) is a creep, but then so are Disney execs, Americans are still prudes, and that even when we don't want them to - children eventually grow up to be adults.
