In explaining why he would not

In explaining why he would not participate in the discussion that perpetuated a tiresome and meaningless controversy about a particular media celebrity, he unwittingly participated in the discussion that perpetuated a tiresome and meaningless controversy about a particular media celebrity.

Later, he went on to write a series of articles that became a book further elaborating his explanation about why he would not participate in the discussion that perpetuated a tiresome and meaningless controversy about a particular media celebrity, which would ensure that the tiresome and meaningless controversy about that particular media celebrity would continue for some time, possibly until long after that particular media celebrity had died.

Some people theorise that he did this out of spite for the particular media celebrity who he did not, in fact, know.

Whenever people asked him if he could explain his explanation, he would threaten to write a sequel.

He died, one day, when he accidentally took a knife to a spoon fight and was instantly set upon by all the others. Few people attended his funeral.

media beat-up. there are no more 'slow-news days'.
I try to avoid 'news'. I was in somebody's else's home when the tv featured an ex-Olympic swimmer's new boyfriend. I suggested switching channels because we don't care who she's sleeping with, and there was the same 'news' simultaneously on another channel.
There will be a price paid for this sort of rubbish-news, some time soon I hope.

Derryn's (agent) announcing his 'reduced life expectancy' fell in a hole doing it the same day another Melbourne 'name' took all the headlines when he actually did die.

Derryn is cool. At least according to me, who is very very uncool, so no need to pay any attention.
