This mentality is similar to that of a child you builds sand castles on the beach but then gets a greater pleasure from knocking them all down.<br /><br />This overwhelming public demand means that so called journalists will often pass up the truth in order to sell storeys. I find it hard to have any respect for people who profit from perpetuating rumours. If only people would stop and ask "What is this person trying to sell?" our society might just become a little better informed.Dan Buzzardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03046657265822326106noreply@blogger.com
