celebrity blogs

Celebrity blogs turning into real news stories is nothing more than lazy journalism. Yes, entertainment sells but there are entire channels devoted to celebrity gossip. It does not need to continually pollute the major news networks airwaves. Journalists need to search for a real story with pressing matters instead of fill the public's brain with useless gossip about who just releasted a sex video or who just checked into rehab. The commedian Chris Rock said on Oprah that it is a sad day when the public is more concerened with Britney Spear's shaved head then the number of troops who died in Iraq today. Maybe the public is becoming so involved in celebrity news because the real news has become so depressing and difficult to watch.
