Journal#6 Britney, head shaved, gets new tattoo

Celebrities try to catch the public attention by doing unusual things. They shave their heads, get naked in the public and get strange tattoos. After reading this article some questions came to my mind. What percentages of readers really care about this kind of headlines? Why writers try to sell such a cheap article? Does Britney Spears bold head make any difference in people lives? Is it more important than other news such as war, poverty, crimes and serious issues that we hear everyday? Well, this article was on the first page of the AZ Central with big letters that captured my attention before any other news. I totally understand that some people prefer to read fun articles more than sad ones but as a writer aren’t they responsible to increase readers’ knowledge and write about something more important and meaningful?
