Media Hypocrisy
I’m planning on writing a broader piece about the US news media, but I must point out the blatant hypocrisy and gall of the news media to run stories and comment about how there is too much ‘Paris Hilton goes to jail’ coverage. These news media outlets choose to devote reporters and airtime to this story, and then run further stories about how there’s too much attention given to such unimportant stories. They say this as if they’re not in control of their own programming.
They also don’t seem to realize that they’re complaining about too much Paris Hilton coverage to the same audience that tunes in to consume such stories. Every one else has already tuned out.
