2.0 Reflection re Mass Media

I think this is a waste of people's reading - Paris and her jail time, etc. Why do people spend so much time watching mass media instead of learning about Iraq, starving people in Rwanda, Chad, such matters as child abuse, etc? Even spousal abuse is a serious problem. Oprah is a goody goody, she does not address abuse issues. Her dog choked on a plastic ball - who cares? It is a waste of my time to watch that crap when I could be with my son, or doing homework, or something important. One time Dr. Phil had "Malachai" who had a brother molesting his little sister. Mass media, and I hate it, does the sensationalized and nationalized stories and you never know the outcome. Such as the little boy in Georgia whose family molestors killed him. What was the outcome?
