I think that the vast majority of our society (sadly) is now so tied into the cult of celebrity worship that they cannot think at a level much above the National Enquirer. If you watch BBC or some of the foreign news casts this kind of garbage does not surface nearly as frequently. It is sad that a lot people feed their kids this stuff from the time they are tiny...there are so many people doing good in the world who never get recognized because they are not famous! I try to avoid the news...
