    Why is print, TV and web media so focussed on celebrity news? What does it matter if a model is in or out of rehab or prison? How does this bit of news enrich our lives? There are thousands of ordinary people around us who are doing acts of great charity and love,but very few of these people get recognized or written about in the media.Their stories would inspire others to make the world a better place. I think media suffer from celebriosis!

    I agree with you 100%.
    I'm guessing like with sex, it sells. I mean look at the number of Paris Hilton threads on DP :mad:

    I guess media just capitalizes on whatever captivates us.
