Media - Will they ever stop?

Whenever there is some silly matter being blown up in Sun TV, I would say to myself " Indecent people .. these Indians would never change". Policians start blaming each other in various media and it would drive me crazy. I thought americans are civilized and decent people. I think I was wrong..when it comes to media all are in the same herd. For the past 2-3 days, people in US might have noticed only one issue blown up in all channels.. Its not the war at Israel but about Christie Brinkley's husband, Peter Cook, cheating her. Ok.. I didn't know who she was till I saw the news. She is supposed to be a super-model ( 52 now :)). Detail news at CNN She is a celebrity..OK..her husband cheated her..fine. So all channels get hold of the other girl (Diana) and get her interview and start discussions on very useful subjects like "Why do men cheat?", "Why do married men cheat?" , " Do women also cheat?", " Whose mistake was it Peter's or Diana's?". There were atleast 2-3 hours of these discussions for 2-3 days. The same happened a few years ago about Bill Clinton. Does anyone in India know any of his acheivements? But everyone knows his private life. I heard that a president should satisfy certain criteria..blah-blah..but why make it a world news? Just for media's publicity !! Doesn't a person have his privacy? Who are they to publicize what he did? The questions are personal and why should they be answered in public? Who are they to judge his private life? Why do they care? Is it going to bring any use to the society? A celebrity's private life is the matter of concern for the media. Today, there was a hype about pictures of crying babies. It seems, someone wanted to take pictures of crying babies so they gave a lolly-pop to them and forcibly got it back and took the pictures..Uh? Tomorrow, there seems to be a discussion on is it correct to do that? This was the headline news along with "Is the world heading for a 3rd world war?". Why not have a separate section for fun? I don't know when the media will stop this. Do people also enjoy these kinds of news? May be, yes..so I can't blame the media alone !! They would broadcast everything and I didn't have the control to switch the channel as it was a Gym :-( !!
