is the media the reason of this generations corrupt society
Miley Cyrus and her annoying antics, Justin Bieber and his League of Lunatics, and One Direction fans with their ongoing documentaries on how desperate they are to meet five untalented singers…. We have heard it all before. However, do you see how the parents strive to make their children's corrupted dreams come true? Do you see how they try to get their daughter's approval while she is socializing online? And is this really the fault of the media?

Secondly, people waste countless hours of their lives trying to see what famous people are doing. They are thus missing out on things that happen in reality by “celebrity watching”.
“It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity” Albert Einstein predicted that in the future, our society would be hypnotised by cellular devices. He is correct.
