"demographics"

why the hell are we talking about this silly person so much?
What did (listed in-the-order-they-died) Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays have in common?
We knew them at-a-glance.
They understood, and were humble about,
attention span.
When "Charlie's Angels" became a top ten show, Farrah said "We're a hit."
When it made top three, she concluded, "it's because we don't wear bras."
Michael Jackson's musical genius was surpassed only by his gift for making-you-look.
Ed McMahon and Billy Mays smiled, and didn't mumble.
Neither of 'em would've said "dubba-yew."
Because it's largely anonymous here, I can only surmise that most Tara dissers here are unlike her, demographically...so they're not factoring-in
relatability. She IS the-audience-News/Talk-radio-craves: soccermom in the SUV, the Secretary of the Treasury for households populated by children (read "retail spending MACHINES"). She speaks to -- and for -- them, and makes the on-air ensemble "a family." She's the daughter/sister/mom/aunt the show would otherwise be without.
Among the kinder of MANY consultant jokes: "He takes a connecting flight to come-all-the-way-here to tell me '
Be yourself?'"
