If the vampires in the press were not so obsessed with selling gossip, there would probably be fewer people coming forward with public apologies just to get their names in print. Just my opinion.
You can't blame the press -- they're simply giving the public what they want. The press wouldn't be putting the stuff out if there wasn't a market for it. Look at the popularity of some of the stuff on TV and it becomes pretty clear that America is becoming an intellectual wasteland. If the public wants to buy garbage, there's always folks willing to sell it to them.
