Now I feel stupid for trying to answer your question in the other thread.
Those "fashion reports" and the like, while apparently hated by those who fear their inner diva coming out, are what gives networks content to fill the hours before the Derby, which itself is only 2 minutes long. There's a reason the Derby actually gets excellent TV ratings and is virtually the only horse-racing-related event that does so (other than Belmont in a Triple Crown year). It's a show, and a show has to offer something for more than just hardcore bettors.
Now I feel stupid for trying to answer your question in this thread too. Like trying to pour water into a rock.
