Starbucks hypocrisy

I was listening to the Film Snuff podcast that tears apart overrated movies, and in their most-recent episode, they made a lot of good points about "You've Got Mail." Mainly that Kathleen Kelly spends the whole movie railing against Fox Books' business model being evil, yet she goes to Starbucks throughout the entire movie. Huge flaw in this movie.

Did anyone else notice that?

Serial killers don't typically have a lot of ethics.

You´re right! I didn´t think of that, I only thought: "oh, that silly Starbucks with their prefabricated cofee," I didn´t consider them equivalent to Fox.
