The Media and Famous People(媒體與名人)

　　The Media and Famous People

　　In almost every form of media, including television, newspapers and magazines, a great deal of attention is paid to the personal lives of celebrities. It seems that the public cannot get enough of this kind of news. However, I believe that the media have a responsibility to present a balanced view of the world, as well as respect the lives of public figures. Therefore, I believe that the media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people.

　　For people who are fascinated with the lives of public figures there are some forms of media devoted exclusively to this topic. They can satisfy their curiosityby buying fan magazines and watching TV shows devoted to entertainment news. The general media should present all types of information because people have different interests. Furthermore, the practice of dwelling on the private lives of celebrities can lead people to pay more attention to these matters than they otherwise would. Perhaps most importantly, the media should respect the privacy of every individual, including public figures. They may have chosen to be in the public eye, but that does not give the public the right to know everything about them. Moreover, many stories about celebrities are untrue; they are only gossip reported to increase sales of magazines and other media. They are unfair to the famous and mislead the public.

　　For all of these reasons, I believe that the media should pay more attention to matters other than the private lives of public figures. In this way, they can appeal to a wider audience and encourage people to develop other interests. In my opinion, the media currently pay too much attention to the private lives of public figures.

　　參考譯文：

　　媒體與名人

　　幾乎每一種媒體，包括電視、報紙和雜志，都把許多焦點放在名人的私生活上。一般大眾似乎對這種新聞一直很感興趣。然而，我認為媒體有責任以公正無偏袒的觀點報導時事，以及尊重公眾人物的生活。因此，我認為媒體的確過度關注名人的私生活。

　　因為有些人對于公眾人物的私生活十分著迷，所以有些媒體就專做這個主題。通過購買針對歌迷或影迷所發行的雜志和觀看電視節目的娛樂新聞，就能滿足這些歌迷和影迷的好奇心
