考研英語作文范文155篇媒體是否過多地關注名人

　　29 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. Use specific reasons and details to explain your opinion. 　　I think the media pay too much attention to the private lives of famous people. Television, newspaper magazines and web sites dig up all kinds of past bad actions. They say that these are true reflections of a persons character. This may be true if they occurred only a few years before, but some of these are things people did as teenagers. People in their forties are expected to explain something they did when they were fifteen. If they killed someone, obviously thats more than a youthful mistake. Usually, though, these incidents involve experiments with drugs or being reckless in a car. Theyre not something that the public needs to know. 　　The media love to say that the public has a right to know. Thats not true. We dont need to know if a movie star or politician has had an extramarital affair. That is something of concern only to the people involved. We do need to know if someone were electing to public office has been involved in shady business deals, but we dont need to know if he or she defaulted on a loan twenty years ago. 　　It seems the media dig up these facts without giving thoughtful consideration to what might happen. It has an effect on the celebritys family, especially the children. A celebritys good name and credibility may be ruined before he or she can prove that rumors are false. If a case goes to court, paying a lawyer can use up all their money. Even if it doesnt come to that, they may find their career ruined. 　　When are we, the public, going to make it clear to the media that were tired of having to watch this kind of thing on the news? Wouldnt it be better if they would concentrate on more important issues?
