Scoop’s Views

Ed McMahon, the former face of Publisher’s Clearinghouse sweepstakes, who teased Americans for years that he could show up at the door of anyone’s home, at any time, and make them a millionaire, seems to be in need of a sweepstakes win these days.

In recent days, McMahon’s financial woes have gone public, and now he says that he is “representing many people in the same situation.” What a crock! Perhaps he should ask one of his neighbors, such as Britney Spears, if he represents everyday people.
