Brooke Hogan appeared on Access Hollywood last night in the first segment in a two part interview, shown below. I expected to feel more pure malice toward her than I did while watching her defend her family's behavior toward the vegetative victim of her brother's drunken car crash.

In the tapes released by the jail of Nick's phone calls, and in a follow-up appearance on Larry King, Brooke's dad Hulk Hogan blamed John for his injuries. Nick had a .05 alcohol level two hours after speed racing on a public street...
