Edelstein: Swept Up In Antonella Barba Fever

Jeff Edelstein of The Trentonian gave a minute-by-minute account of his feelings watching ‘American Idol’ last night as fellow New Jersey native Antonella Barba discovered her fate. At 8:08 EST he wrote, “Let’s check eBay, where one entrepreneurial spirit has posted – for the low, low price of $12.99 – a silk-screened T-shirt featuring Antonella sitting on a toilet. Once again, that’s a T-shirt of Antonella. Sitting on a toilet. And we wonder why Osama wants to blow us up.”
