You People...

Yeah you. The ones that would rather read about John Terry's sex life/Avram Grant in a Brothel/Jordan's latest PR stunt instead of informing yourself about the genuinely tragic Haiti situation or any one of the dozens of other unbelievable stories going on in the world right now.

You should be ashamed.

Public interest my arse, just because the public find it intersting doesnt mean its in the public interest.

You need to be speaking to the owners, publishers and editors of media, not the public.

A fully rounded education is a good thing.

PS. Did you see the size of her tits?

Who's Avram Grant? Wouldn't of heard of John Terry either if he hadn't had a super injunction issued.

[Jag-D]

Did you see the guy with the blown Hemi Rolls Royce...now THAT was news

I disagree - the owners, publishers and editors are catering to the demand - if the demand was for real news we wouldnt see this celebrity drivel every day.

Because every single day millions of people pick up the paper and go 'I really don't care about this stuff, hope something different crops up tomorrow'

If they did not spend their lives worrying about a footballers sex-life they would soon realise they live a st life. In their st life they have a st job where they rarely get the chance to have sex. Even when they do its extremely disappointing and with a 40-something partner who they hate and has almost doubled in size.

You give the general population far too much credit. The nation is thick. Try to teach them anything of value and they would complain there are not enough tits in it.

Ah, a nice bit of sanctimony to brighten up my otherwise dull day.

Why the wink ? Your sentence was fine without that.

OP did you watch Newswipe this week then?

Sort of echoes your view.

I suppose it was a rather half hearted attempt to avoid offending the OP. Sounds like he's not in the best of moods.

[Curry Burns]

See when you talk, do you just open wide and let your belly rumble?

Ah, why worry for him. After all, his post is designed to offend the people it's aimed at.

[BarRefaeli]

What's this about Avram Grant and a brothel?

[YAD061]

I guess you can thank bottom feeders like Max Clifford for that......he's like a fly round a piece of st, he's even latched onto John Terrys current shag

No, they shouldn't.

Every 20 days malaria kills the same number of people who died in the Haiti earthquake. Why isn't that front page news all the time?

Could it be that in order for human beings to function they occasionally need a bit of fancy/folly/laugther/entertainment?

I couldn't give a toss about John Terry but I don't want to live in a world where the only news reported is bad news.

That's true actually I personally find Jordan's life hilarious.

She's like a clown with massive tits.

[spitfire-ian]

I think this thread should be mixed with this one here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Now that would be a classic in the making

I have no problems with celebrity gossip per se - my issue is when its on the front page of the newspapers and the people who would rather spend their lives vicariously through celebrities.

Besides, you cant tell me Amanda Holdens lips arent a major news story.....
