Journalism in this country has really gone downhill. It seems that there are no news stations or people that are interested in really digging out a story but instead rely on press releases and easy target information. Sad state of affairs, to be sure.

As tiring as it is to see those celebrity scoops, it's apparent that there are a lot of viewers that do like them, or at least are amused enough by them to watch them, because they do draw the viewers, bring in the sponsors and raise the ratings. persohnally I'd rather watch still shots tables on screen than sit through another celebrity scoop.

YES!! The media is being taken over by celebrity news. I really think it's a tactic to take people's focus off the war. But, hey I could be wrong.

My 7 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old son informed me to no longer be gay whilst asked him if he needed swimming goggles. I even have by no ability heard everybody who has a adverse ideas-set to different peoples sexuality use the interest gay so gently and in relaxing. The English language has constantly replaced and adapted the which ability of words and it keeps to attain this. carry on.. my gay buddy 'gently Bentley' has in basic terms informed me that each and every thing and all and sundry is as gay as bunting and as camp as a van. yet i could admit it has made me think of what different gay peple sense approximately this? i'm uncertain it could say something adverse approximately them?

Hold on...I am following a story about Conrad Baines...
Yes. I find it upsetting and generally unsubscribe from services that announce details about Paris Hilton or Anna Nicoole Smith as 'breaking news'.

Agree.
These news channels need to look up the definition of what Breaking News is warranted to be broadcast to the public..

No kidding. Enough of those little rich snobs who continually find themselves in trouble. I could care less.
During Paris's escapades, I rarely turned the news on.

ha, yea! i found it ridiculous when all the "news" stations were covering the Paris jail thing. This obviously made it clear that News casts are now about ratings, they have to put stories that will get people to watch their station.

Don't you think that Lindsay Lohan's frequent stints at rehab are newsworthy? Why, that's almost unAmerican!
I truly believe that these stories are reported because if the truth was reported, there would be hell to pay.
