Yahoo! News - Britney's Tangled Wedding: A Primer: "For its part, People has defended the ceremony heavily documented in its pages as the 'real deal.'

'That is the next bump in the story that you're going to see: The wedding is fake. It's really not,' Jess Cagle, People senior editor, said Wednesday on CBS's Early Show.

Bitter rival Us begs to differ.

'Dan Rather was defending his George Bush (news - web sites) story a week ago. Where is Dan Rather today?' Baker asks. 'Granted, this is Britney Spears and not the President.'"

What's funnier: Britney's "spiritual" publicity stunt or just how seriously gossip "journalists" take their work?
