By using the internet, social media, and taking advantage of cable networks that have low enough standards to constantly maintain a media presence. Her family's tv shows aren't big ratings earners, which is why they would never survive on network tv, but a stantion like E! doesn't have to have shows that meet the same ratings benchmarks as network television. So, they're always on tv.
Her family is also in bed with certain
tabloid magazines.
Kim's fame isn't the result of changing cultural norms, because she's not the world's first talentless socialite. There are just more platforms and opportunities availed to her now that either weren't available before for those other talentless socialites or weren't as ubiquitous.
So, I agree with the majority. Aint nothing to see here, and hopefully Anna maintains the integrity of American Vogue by not putting her on the cover.
