"Lots of people’s lives have been affected by the media just like this, is it alright for the media to do this just because they are dealing with famous people or is it wrong?"
Private lives of celebrities is what makes up the media and entertainment. Yes, it's interesting to learn about what is going on in their lives, and yes some of them do like the attention. But most celebrities probably just want to be left alone. Personally I dont think it is any of our business what goes on with the famous. If they want us to know something they wll tell, otherwise I think they should be asked permission to submit something to the public. If something wrong (like the Tiger Woods situation) happened and the person admits they made a mistake and wants the public to realize that and what the details were then fine, let the media have their way. But if an embarassing story about you got out to the public, how would you feel? It is an invasion of privacy whether it is a story about a famous person or not. Whether it is an embarassing story or one promoting charity; stories should be given permission to be sent out no matter what. So the news might have less interesting stories, at least they would have the right to be in the news in the first place. Stories made about celebrities for entertainment are how rumors get started and rumors that get out of hand. The more you know about a famous person will not change your life or theirs. which leads me to my question:
Can the more knowledge we attain distort our visions/views of [the] truth?
