Court Obsession

2:42 pm

With all the recent news about the Scott Peterson trial, I’ve been wondering what the media is thinking. Is really necessary to have a meaningless trial as the BIG news story. Don’t get me wrong, it was a horrible thing for him to do, but is it really necessary to follow every little detail in the case? It doesn’t affect any of our lives. There are more important things that the media could cover, but instead they cover a meaningless trial to attract more viewers/readers. The media’s priority seems to be money instead of providing important news or information.

    Unfortunately thats the case… Whatever brings more people and crowd.. pays the bills… It’s absurd.. b\c the media is dictating what we should watch.. instead of the other way around..

    Yeah exactly, we should be told about things we really want/need to know about instead of the hyped up stories to grab our attention.
