Scandals pay, don't they? | |||||||||||||||||||||
A politician cheated on his wife with 10 different women, A man killed his family with a knife, Major earthquake in China – number of victims is shocking!
Many people are - for some reason or another – very interested in the lives of others. Maybe the lives of these kinds of enthusiastic people lack some excitement or activity. When they see a breaking headline, they have to know what exactly has happened, how, when and where. And when they read, for instance, that a suicide bomber exploded a bus full of people including himself, they might say "Wow, how terrible!" but what they really think is "Wow, how cool!" On the other hand, it's stupid to close your eyes from the reality, and some news items – even the horrible ones - are very important. But it's still wrong to enjoy the catastrophes. Viewing different media, TV and movies pitch a very shonky picture about death – agent 007 kills people just like that, without hesitating. The Internet also plays a big role; all kinds of shocking videos can be published. And the newspapers, the way how they make money by the suffering of people is very contemptible. At least they should ask for permission from the person of the interest. Would journalists themselves like to read about their own dramatic divorces or drunken mistakes in the newspaper? So the way how they dare to offend people's privacy is immoral. But the fact is that scandals pay, so it's all about business. | |||||||||||||||||||||
