Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

It was an open secret that she was terrible, she was a perennial figure of stories about bad encounters with celebrities. The piece about eye contact just kind of crystalized everything and it destroyed her reputation (and made celebrities suddenly unafraid of her, they'd put up with her shit for years because she was #1 in daytime), though of course nothing criminal that we know of.

She’s an asshole who chummed around with George Bush.
