We are only reporting this because it’s a slow news week

Just to be perfectly clear. :-)

The Louisville (KY) Courier-Journal reports that one can see Jennifer Garner’s wedding gown, which was “inspired by a Jane Austen novel,” in the television program “In Style Celebrity Weddings” tonight on ABC.

We suspect it might have been inspired more by the fact that Miss Garner was in expectation of her confinement (as they say in Jane Austen novels) at the time. The empire waistline is excellent for that sort of thing.
