200) Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public figures and celebrities.
Early morning, with a cup of hot chocolate sitting on my cozy bed I start reading the newspaper hoping that the news will be something much more pleasant and better than the day before. As usual there is always something violent going around in this small world which never seems to stop.
As I turn the page to the fashion week stuff I see so much gossip. Media tends to pay too much attention to the personal lives of celebrities and public figures. No one wants to know about two people’s sexual life neither do we want to know how celebrity couples first met. A role of a celebrity is to act in movies and show themselves in different special occasions. Media sometimes over does it when they have to put news up on the paper. Gossip is not the only way to catch a reader’s attention. Putting a page up in the newspaper filled with gossip is not pleasant. Think about yourself in the same place as some celebrity, having all the silly gossips about you up on the paper which is open to every individual—that is just so sad. Publicizing personal life of a person is not good in general. I believe that media should have certain rules that they should follow which would prevent media from presenting personal issues of different people.
Few years ago I used to watch a television show “Koffee with Karan” in that show there is so much personal life publicized of various famous people. I would hate to get into so much detail about a person’s life. Koffee with Karan is a show where every week there will be a different celebrity who is asked a few questions about his or her life; the answer is so detailed and specific that one would have to get into personal life experiences in order to answer it right. Getting into depth about a persons personal life is bad.
I like your essay, however, i disagree with you. Celebrities got into their profession knowing the consequence, one of them being invasion of private life. Everyone wants to know celeb gossip, and newspaper companies want to make money, so obviously they will invade in private life of celebrities. You contradict yourself in this article. You say that you dont like violent news, and then you also say that you dont like gossip. These things are basically what newspapers are all about. What news do you like? You can improve by reading over the essay before submitting it. I know what you are trying to say, but you dont convey your point very well. However, i like how you used examples in your work.
