Britney Spears

You can’t turn on the news these days without seeing some kind of controversial issue about Britney Spears. I’m wondering if this is all necessary, and whether or not people think the coverage is always ethical or not. Britney recently tried to end her life and was taken to the hospital for the second time in just a month. Should the media really have the right to not only record her going ons, but talk about her psychological issues as if they know what is really wrong with her?
I think that it is time for the media to give it a rest. One of the most likely reasons for her “mental breakdowns” is due directly to the media and their constant coverage and accusations and assumptions. This girl is in the spotlight 24/7 as if she is the president. Don’t you think that there are more important issues in the world today that the media can and should be covering?
