Dinner Party Talk – Miss America is Homeless!

No, the title is not some kind of commentary on the state of the recession. The Miss America Pageant, an institution since 1921, has lost its network partner. TLC broadcast the pageant for the last three years, but has elected not to renew the contract this year. It remains to be seen what (if any) network will bring Miss America to the masses this year. Where will I get my annual baton twirling fix?! The question is: do you think the idea of a “Miss America” is antiquated, sexist, or American fabulous?
