They are only normal people at the end of the day - shock horror they pick their noses!!! get drunk!!! they're just HUMAN.
Why not just let them have a private life?
Shouldn't we should scrutinize their professional life only?

My opinion, no matter what the shitty press wrote about her, she is a good woman, I feel sorry for her and Paul..I for one hate the British press and will never buy another Tabloid paper.. Also before Diana died the press slagged her off, the day she died they couldn't say enough about her on how good she was.....
What is your opinion about the press ???
For me they are scum...............

When the media or Pentagon officials report that so-and-so Al Queda members were killed, captured, or whatever, in some recent event; what is the criteria they are using to to establish links to the acknowledged Al Queda organization? For instance, is there a card that AQ members are carrying or a tattoo they are wearing that identifies them as an AQ member? This is a refinement of a similar question I asked earlier.

Why is a death is Israel (terrible) front page news and if dozens die in Palestine or Lebanon. Or an American girl is bulldozed to death trying to protest for Palestinians rights (to help prevent the bulldozing of Palestinians' home) this is treat scarcely if at all buried in a passing reference. It also goes to a larger question of is corporate America running MSM news media helping kill true free speech and America's freedom and it's citizen's welfare. BBC does an OK job for some things but they're Brits.

They act like he still matters. That is why I get most of my news from the internet.

Do you feel it's newsworthy if one photo of several star members of a women's college athletic team appeared (presumably accidentally) on an "amateur" porn site? It's a facetious photo of them naked (which they willingly staged and participated in) with the most censorable bodily areas covered.
Or should their safety and privacy be protected and kept from publicity?
On the privacy question, I imagine the determination is whether they're "public figures" in the eyes of the law (a smaller college, but they're nationally ranked athletes). Regarding safety, of concern is that they're identifiable women and it seems most believable the photo was posted by someone other than them.
My view, I think, is that it's not fit for reporting. And it hasn't been.
Your thoughts?
Also: Should the athletes be notified of the photo, or would this invite a legal mess for the "notifier" (as perhaps under suspicion of posting the picture, or knowing who posted it -- both of which aren't the case)?

Save the snide remarks about conservatives. I'm not one. It just seems as though it's getting harder and harder to get unbiased news.

Why is there such a mass exadeous from Lebanon because Israel if defending it self and has every right to so says all the politians (not my opinion) and no one is being evacuated from Israel. Sounds to me that Israel is going to pound the crap out of Lebanon when this rescue mission is over. How come no one is concerned for all the non Iraelites stranded there. Is Lebanon noting going to retailate back????

For years and years I've heard from numerous sources that almost all of big American media is owned my Jews. Is this true? If so, why and how are they able to control such a huge and influentual source of American thought? Are there implications for this especially pertaining that it can be assumed that most Jews have support for Isreal? How could this affect what we are hearing everyday and how we are hearing it? How would Americans perceive the media if it were controlled largely by Muslims or Mormoms? Would we trust it? Can any one group that has certain political and religious agendas be trusted when handling such an important industry? Thanks for any feedback!
