Why celebrities shouldn't be on the news

by Bob Zimmerman

Created on: October 12, 2009

Celebrities are constantly in the news. We want to know when they have been approved for an adoption in a foreign country, when they've been arrested for their third drunk driving in a year or when they just show up at some over priced hamburger joint in downtown Hollywood.

Forget about the children looking up to these people, we have full grown adults that want to be just like them. How many people in their late teens early twenties have you seen with short bleached blond hair. These people idolize a man who raps about killing the mother of his own children. They even made a movie to show his triumph from trailer park to penthouse. I don't want him on the news being portrayed as some modern day outlaw hero.

How many people grew up listening to the music of the 80's and 90's? I know you all remember the material girl. Why is she on the news now talking to cameras about children's books and adoption. This woman shouldn't be anywhere near a children's book, she has no moral fiber in her body. I don't want her putting her views into the next generation of children in our world.

People that chronically do dumb things like not wearing panties with their legs spread wide open should not be allowed on the news. That is not news people, it's a fad started by rich spoiled brats, two of them had to work for their money the other had her money handed to her on a silver hotel platter.

If I was splitting up with my wife and leaving my kids to go abroad and enjoy the single life, you wouldn't care. So why do you care if the rich people in show business do it. That's called life not news. News is when a natural disaster strikes and leaves thousands struggling for life not a 1970's tv star dieing with a strap around his testicles. Instead of using news to bring the filth of the world into the light, why can't it be used to announce a call for aid. If we spent more time broadcasting the disasters that need donations and help we might get that help to people. Maybe if we held the celebrities to some sort of moral code they would stop doing so many dumb things and in turn stop using up our air time. To me they are just the party crowd I out grew years ago.
