So I am honestly sick of hearing anything pertaining to Jon or Kate Gosselin. I find it funny that people are taking sides- they both clearly have character flaws. Kate is a controlling, nagging person who needs to take a chill pill, there is no denying that, but I do believe she wants what is best for her kids. The problem is, her definition of what is "best" now incorporates a much larger paycheck and much more media attention than anyone needs, nevermind little kids. As for Jon, he had issues with letting Kate speak to him like that in their marriage and then being unfaithful. Perhaps she was to, I'm not sure nor do I care. And though I find it suspicious that now that he is being 'booted' off of their show that now is the time to get the kids off of television. However, I quite agree that the family needs to live their lives privately from now on.
I just feel for that family- divorce is not something that is easy to deal with. And those kids do not need to be spoiled any more- if I had kids that spoke to me like the older girls do at times, I would not be pleased. It goes to show you what money and attention from the media can do and how quickly it can destroy a family. Hopefully, they will work out their divorce and move on with their lives, focusing on the kids and what is best for them. I see both Jon and Kate as selfish people who now want the attention on themselves. Maybe they also are doing these career moves for the well being of their kids, but its not all about money. Negative attention from the media isn't something that money can fix. SO here's hoping that Jon and Kate wise up and figure out how to handle the situation for their kids and quickly, which will let me listen to more important topics of today. Because there is no denying that we as a country obsess over celebrities and people on television. But here's a question- why do we care? Let the people live their lives and go on with your own. I understand that people in reality television sign up for this kind of exposure, but I just don't understand why we feel we have a right to know, or why we even want to hear all of the details. Personally, I'll just stick to watching "The Office" and finally celebrating Jim and Pam getting married. After the show is over, I will go on with my life.

Oh, the Jon and Kate saga... Will they ever leave us alone? This is another sad case of framing by the news media... Sad because they frame this whole issue as important and make it so people WANT to take sides. Can they not report on important issues? I'd almost kill to go back to the economy talk.
ReplyDeleteIt has gotten to the point of bickering back in forth publically instead of on the phone or in private im sick of it to. I think jons getting the bad end of the stick though
