Maybe it doesn't apply to you, but problem is, they get too much attention. Whenever I walk through giant™ (one I use the most) or some other supermarket, on the shelf of magazines (which I ALWAYS walk by), about 95% of the junk there are supermodels, and 100% of the time I can see that kardashian ***** with a fake smile. Every time I am disgusted by it. Hey, maybe you don't see them on YOUR supermarkets, but I do on mine. Maybe I'm "unlucky," but it's hardly a coincidence if I can see that 95% (5% being TIME (mainly) or some other useful stuff) of magazine shelf is filled with celebrity junk.
I know that Yahoo News is known for its junk, but hey, look what I found. How is that a useful information in anyway? Is bieber going to come to our house and turn his "batmobile" into a solid gold or something?
Rebecca Black.... I know she isn't in the news as often as above two, but.....
(all caps/rage warning)
But hey, I'll never be able to convice you if you have different opinions. It's like trying to convince a piece of brick to carve itself into a Statue of Liberty or something stupid like that. If I can't convince you in any way, maybe we'll have to agree to disagree.
Exactly, many people dislike politicians/politics; they do not want to hear about the latest scandal/decision/personal life information about Obama, Sarah Palin, John Edwards, Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain, Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, and the list goes on. Just because one person finds that information invaluable, doesn't mean that it should not be available to those that do find it valuable. Should we take out news coverage of the 2012 debates and other political articles because some do not find it interesting? The same applies to celebrity news coverage; many people find it valuable.
If you don't like music/celebs/pop culture, then do not buy the magazine. If Justin Beiber is on E! or Fox News, and you do not like hearing about him, then change the channel; there are numerous news channels and internet news sources to select from with a wide-variety of stories. No one has the right to say that celebrities should be segregated from the news.
And again, I still do not understand how you can hate people that you have never met; really, why do people HATE Justin Beiber. I mean, I do not like his music, but he has never done anything like murder, rape, assault, or theft, so why do you have hatred for him?
