spiked When celebrities rule the Earth:
"The main criticism people direct at the media obsession with celebrities is that it clogs up the news with trivia. But it matters more than that today.

What happens in the phoney world of celebrity is often symbolic of developments in the real world that affect us all – and rarely for the better. "
