But hey with the new pied piper in office now I dont have to pay for my car or house anymore! Paparazzi photos are part of whats really wrong with the western world. Think other parts of the world give a damn? No because they're actually part of the real news that gets filtered before its fed to us, nice and safe just like most advertising nice and safe. It had better be safe and soft too or we might make a candle light vigil in protest!!! If people keep eating it up companies will keep paying the paparazzi millions to shoot it.

We are indeed a nosy culture. And, cultural demand creates supply. Paris Hilton, poised at the ballot box on election day? Come on! And, there has got to be a thread of editorial shame in there somewhere as well, for the running of such outrageously banal images in such prominent places. A master's thesis, waiting to be written.... In agreement on all counts. We are indeed a nosy culture. And, cultural demand creates supply. Paris Hilton, poised at the ballot box on election day?

I know there are even some " celebrities" who need attention and call the paparazzi at the time they want to be photographed, but that only makes them all the same . It's just so bad privacy is disrespected . You're right. If we don't look and we don't buy, no one will want to sell.
