Questioning the Media: Trece

Q: Does the press go too far in revealing private details about celebrities? Why or why not? Given that celebrities benefit from positive coverage, should they be given more power to control negative coverage?

A: The press has been known to become a little too invasive when digging for that juicy story. Celebrities are still people too and yes, they allow themselves to be in the public eye but everyone has their right to their own privacy. I am indecisive on the idea of them being “given more power,” however I believe that regardless of their career choice, they do have the right to protect their private lives. That knowledge is up to them regarding how public they allow it to be.
