Television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people especially public figures and celebrities.

I think that television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of some famous people. They pay so much attention to the bad affairs of stars and politicians.

When you go to a newsstand, you see the pictures in the newspapers and magazines at first. What do you see? I see most newspapers and magazines post some famous people on the front page news. Then, what do they say? Most of time, it will say that a star likes another star, a star is going to divorce. When you turn on the TV, there is more news about famous people than the news about the other countries and world or TV shows. Therefore, I think people pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people.

I think famous people should have their own lives. They may work as stars and show themselves on the TV, but besides working, they are ordinary people like us. They also have a right to their own secrets. They also need to relax. They will make mistakes. They will also be angry. They will laugh and cry. They are human. I don’t agree that people use their personal lives as a theme.

I also think that media need to let people know what is happening in the world. It’s the way what will the government do next. Then, people could decide if the government is right or not. It’s a way for people to be a part of the country and give their own opinions about the government. It’s a way for them to know what their life will be in the future. But now, it seems different. They can’t give us any useful information. It becomes entertainment. I think it’s worrisome. It’s not why we need the media.

Therefore, I think that media should not pay so much attention to the personal lives of famous people but rather the important things that happen in the world. I think that is what most people need.
