Fortunately Mr. Ford survived the landing with a cut head, broken ankle and fractured pelvis.
He's a big star so it's a big story. But here's the thing: is this story about his wife racing to the hospital to be at his side news?
Obviously Calista Flockhart has read the celebrity wife manual, which states very clearly in section 4a, paragraph 3.1.1, that a wife must race to her husband's side if he's been in a plane crash.
It's a good thing she has the manual, because how else would she have known what to do?
It's sad when something so natural and decent and expected becomes a news story. It exploits their pain, and even though they're public figures I believe they have a right to privacy - such as it is with the interwebs - just like the rest of us.Besides, if the news uses headlines to report on a wife going to her husband after an accident, it means I have to look harder for the story about Kim Kardashian dying her hair blonde.
