No Daily Beast, uma boa sacada: encomendaram ao escritor Bret Easton Ellis ("Abaixo de Zero"; "Psicopata Americano") um texto sobre Charlie Sheen. O título do artigo: "Notes on Charlie Cheen and the End of Empire". O destaque do editor ficou assim:
"With his tweets, his manic interviews, his insurgent campaign against the entertainment world, Sheen is giving America exactly what it wants out of a modern celebrity. In the full version of an article that appeared in this week's Newsweek, Bret Easton Ellis explains how you are completely missing the point if you think Sheen's meltdown is about drugs."
