Voting Question: !!!!!Jamie Lynn is prego again!!!*****************************************************************************?

The reports I’ve read also said that the mother of Jamie Lynn Spears(pregnant again) is not so happy of the news. They are trying to keep the news a secret before figuring out what to do. Close friends of Jamie Lynn Spears(pregnant again) also are suggesting an abortion. That would be unethical(on my side of the globe). I don’t know how the 17 year old lady and sister of the Pop Princess Britney Spears will handle this.

Resolved Question: Search ! I want a facility that will search the entire net and give me the results as a 'feed'?

I may be wrong, but a RSS feed only give you information from one particular website. I am looking for a facility that does the following:- If say I want all the information on a company , say I.B.M. ..or even a person say Britney Spears. is there a service/software available that literally searches the entire internet for all the lastest breaking information relating to one specific topic/search term and can deliver it to me. Basically, i want to turn on my computer and be able to read all the latest information/news/press releases about a specific topic. At the moment to get the latest changes/info about a specific topic, I have to go to google...put in the topic e.g. I.B.M...put 'last 24 hours' into advanced search..... then read all the results. that's great, but that won't include latest news.....so then i have to go to google news which wont pick up press releases and interesting new articles..... Equally if i subscribe to an RSS feed for 'IBM' on a specialist computing website...only info published by that one computing website will be delivered to me. i want an RSS that will scour ALL websites for latest information about IBM. Does this sound confused ? Its a hard concept to explain....can you help ? more

Voting Question: Strange question, but what's up with the Spears sisters nowadays?

I don't have People or OK! or US Weekly, and I rarely watch the Insider or ET, so I'm very cut off from the "celebrity world."

Resolved Question: Is there something morally wrong about McCain using Brittany Spears & Paris Hilton in his latest Obama attack?

As so clearly stated in the link below "if you put Britney Spears and Paris Hilton in a political ad with Obama, you can almost count on lots of stories and TV news broadcasts, and don't have to spend a lot of money." A 70 year old man just painted his opponent as irresponsible by knowingly attempting to equate him with two young women in their early 20's who are most well known these days for their life choice mistakes. McCain held two young women up for further ridicule for political gain. In the past a politician might point at spears and company as why we should be moral and dedicated to being supportive elements to our wives, sisters, and daughters --- but isn't it a new level of bad taste to get political gain at an innocent female bystander's expense? In my youth, old men who took advantage of young women were called pimps or molesters, they weren't called American heroes, regardless of what they may have done in the military. I am very disappointed in John McCain. http://blogs.trb.com/news/local/longisland/politics/blog/2008/07/video_mccain_attack_ad_obama_s.html more

The last time we saw numbers as low as George Bush's approval rating,was Barack Obama's bowling score. Roger Clemens was in the news a couple weeks ago,for allegations that he dated a 15 year old in his late 20's-you can imagine what was going through his mind when the Miley Cyrus scandal hit the news.Forget roid rage,does this mean we'll have to look for him on Megan's Law?

Resolved Question: How come none of the stars or ''CELEBRITIES'' never get stretch marks or a saggy stomach from 'PREGNANCY'?

There so lucky! Like Christina Aguilera & Britney Spears. . . . Ive sussed all there stomaches out & they dont have excess loose skin OR stretch marks, There stomach looks EXACTLY the same before they had children? How/&Why? I know they have the money to go get ''Tummy Tucks'' but even iff they did it would be on the news or on the internet that they got that done & not only that you will be able to tell just by looking at there stomach iff they have had a tummy tuck or not. How do they do it? Cause i know iff i was a nowin singer or a actress or something famous like that i would be too scared to have kids incase that happenes to my stomach!! Cause you know ... all the celebrities & all that have ''Perfect Bodies'' so how come they are that lucky to never get this problem? What iff they did? they wouldnt know it was going to happen so they just took the chance & they came out lucky. Britney Spears has nothing wrong with her stomach in her latest film clip ''Piece OF Me'' she has 2kids more

Voting Question: what do you think of this comedy routine?

Can I say one thing real quick? it's about politics. What I've got to say about politics is...That's just it,silence,it's boring,a president doesn't run this country, last time I checked, WE ran this country! Unfortunately with us running the country, we've made Global Warming, our streets are full of gangs,the hip hop industry has gone down the drain, John Mccain's still alive. That guy, is old enough to be someone's great grandpa. And he's in the running for president. One of the candidates he's going against, is Barack Obama. Now, if he becomes president, he'll be the first black president, and what makes me laugh about the guy, is that he looks like an Elf. How did I figure this? Well, I remembered watching, and falling asleep through, The Lord of the Rings, and I googled Froto and Barack Obama, and you can make it a do-it-yourself project to photoshop, the guy has elf ears, almost elephantine. If he's president, our tax dollars are going to change from "tax" to "reperations". The other candidate, is Hillary Clinton. What can you say about Hillary? She's Bill Clinton's wife, or as Bill calls her "Monica". Oh shoot, wrong name. Another thing wrong with this country, gas prices are higher than cheech and chong on 420. The cost the USA spends on oil, sums up to about the same amount of money in the elliot spitzer scandal. And a brand new scandal recently hit the news. Teen pop singer Miley Cyrus, recently got herself into a photo scandal with the Vanity Fair magazine. Miley Cyrus. When news of the scandal broke out,dozens of priests lined up outside her door, Michael Jackson was a late arrival,telling everyone,"don't leave me out of this".Meanwhile, Lindsay Lohan and Amy Winehouse are fighting over who's going to go to rehab the most, or whose released the least amount of cds. Britney Spears, is going to be returning to "How I Met Your Mother", when the kids asked Kevin Federline this question, he told them,"you've gotta ask her that one,because I have no idea." more

Resolved Question: help on essay about celebrity role models...10 pts!!?

i need help with revising the second paragraph most. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!! Should Celebrities and Athletes take Responsibility in Being a Role Model? Why are there so many athletes and celebrities these days failing as role models? Should they bear any responsibility at all for being role models to society? After all, they are the people whom we look up to; especially children and young adults. At some point of our lives, (no matter how old) we have had some kind of role model, for most it was a celebrity or sports figure; a role model was anyone appealing. Now the sad thing is in today’s society, we put way too much emphasis on these role models. We manipulate or adopt what we see like clothing, behavior, hairstyles, and actions; the media. In other words, Hollywood sets the norms, and society follows. This is one of the reasons why it is critical that celebrities and athletes need to recognize their impact upon the public. Children are always watching and observing adult behavior partly because adults are the ones who have answers to questions. While parents can control what children are exposed to, they cannot completely shield children from the onslaught of Hollywood trends that flash in front of their eyes: commercials, billboards, movies, and on tv. “I am a role model and if I don’t step up or stand up for the issues that are important to the people, then I take just as much to blame as a 50 cent or a Snoop Dogg.” Rapper KRS-One once said during a telephone interview (McKevie 1). There are those celebrities out there who are willing to take the consequences and responsibility of their actions, and KRS-One is one of the few. As I was growing up, I remember that the major celebrities of that time were people like Britney Spears. I used to idolize Britney Spears like many others, up until the time she started going downhill. Back in the late 90’s, she was famous for her beauty, singing, and personality. But now she is popular for the opposite; to have a laugh out of her because of the sluttyness, drugs, and divorce, etc. When a junior high student was asked what he thought of Spears now, this is what he said: “I used to like Britney Spears when I was younger…I mean, she shaved her head for Pete’s sake. What’s going on with her?” (McKevie 2). So, why is it that the media publicizes more of the negative side of Hollywood? I think it is because in reality, people tend to be more interested and engaged in the Hollywood scandals. Hence, it also makes a lot of money and brings in millions of viewers. For example, the TV show, “TMZ” exposes celebrities and athletes in reality, and shows the ugly side of the famous. When it first aired on the Internet in 2005, it had 120 plus viewers per month, (an additional 9 million compared to “Extra” and “Access Hollywood”) (FOX news 1). more

Resolved Question: Have you read this?

The young star is in a fight for her life against mental illness. By Asra Q. Nomani February 12, 2008 I'll never forget the first time I saw my brother strapped to a gurney. I was just a teen, and he'd been diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder, an illness akin to schizophrenia that causes mood swings, psychosis and violent outbursts. Our family had just committed him for psychiatric treatment, and I wept, shouting into the air, "I want my brother back." At home, my parents sobbed. But at least we went through this anguish in private. So it's impossible for me to find any entertainment value in the public harassment of Britney Spears, who was released from the psychiatric ward of UCLA Medical Center last week. And as a journalist, I doubt there is news value in it either. Mental illness doesn't always elicit compassion; it's hard to see, so it's hard to understand. Perhaps in the wake of Spears' breakdown, California mental health advocates will lobby to change the state's involuntary commitment laws so that those who are sick get treatment, even if they don't realize how badly they need it. In the meantime, all of us should reflect on the fact that we wouldn't be so cruel to somebody diagnosed with another disease. Would we make a sideshow of someone with a brain tumor? It's easy to blame the paparazzi and celebrity gossip websites, and, granted, they are the worst. TMZ promoted a video of Spears crying with the headline, "Britney Spears on Suicide Watch?" Over a photo of Spears sitting on a curb after her fight with her manager, PerezHilton.com scrawled "Britwreck." But the mainstream media are complicit. After Spears' release (over the objection of her family), A.J. Hammer, host of CNN's "Showbiz Tonight," stumbled over the pronunciation of Spears' supposed medications; the words "Burning Britney Questions!" rolled across the bottom of the screen. "Britney's Mental Illness" was the cover of a recent People magazine. The Daily Telegraph's website featured this headline: "Mad Britney Spears detoxed by doctors," with a link, "See pictures of the drama here." By exploiting Spears' moment of vulnerability, media companies have crossed the line of basic moral decency. To me, this includes Wenner Media, owner of US Weekly and Rolling Stone, which just published an expose of Spears' mental illness, and even Barbara Walters, who recently reported on Spears' mental health issues on "The View." Enough. Time Warner Inc. (parent of CNN, People, AOL and Entertainment Weekly), News Corp. (the Rupert Murdoch firm that owns Fox News and papers around the globe) and others should halt all coverage of Spears until she is healthy. Let's leave Britney and her family alone. Responsible journalists long ago came to the ethical determination not to publish the names of rape victims or to air the most gruesome of terrorist videos. We can do the same here. We can get off this maniacal roller coaster that is Britney Spears coverage to remember one important fact: This is a 27-year-old in a fight for her life. My role model in this debate is photographer Nick Stern, who quit his job Feb. 1 with the Splash news agency because he couldn't stomach shooting the Spears story any longer. "It's not journalism. Sooner or later, someone's going to get killed," he told the Independent in London. "Possibly Britney herself." Even aspiring journalists are making the right call. At Georgetown University's School of Continuing Studies, where I'm a journalism professor, senior Erin Delmore walked off the set of a campus TV talk show. "I'm so done with the Britney coverage," she said. "End it." Last week, I wrote to my editor at People and told her that I couldn't continue working as a stringer for the magazine. I'm not being holier than thou. I wasn't always kind to my brother about his illness. I scolded and nagged him. I called him lazy when he didn't make his bed, unmotivated when he didn't get a job and uncaring when he forgot our birthdays. It's taken more than 20 years for me to understand, deep within my soul, that his mental illness is like a brain tumor, or cancer, or diabetes. It is a disease. It has symptoms such as anosognosia, which means that a person doesn't think they have an illness, and flat affect, which saps emotional expressiveness. Right now, there is no cure. When I realized not long ago how cruel I had been, I told my brother what I now tell Britney and her family: "I'm sorry." more

Resolved Question: DId Dr. Phil cancel the Britney show?

LOS ANGELES - Television's "Dr. Phil" McGraw has pulled the plug on plans for a one-hour show that was to examine Britney Spears' latest public meltdown. ADVERTISEMENT In a statement posted Monday on his Web site, McGraw said the 26-year-old pop star's situation was "too intense" for him to go forward with the show. He didn't say whether he planned to reschedule. Spears was hospitalized Thursday night after a child custody dispute with ex-husband Kevin Federline resulted in an hours-long standoff with police. On Friday, a court commissioner gave sole physical and legal custody of 1-year-old Jayden James and 2-year-old Sean Preston to Federline. McGraw said he met with Spears for an hour Saturday before she left the hospital. (This was from yahoo news) more

Resolved Question: Why can't CNN report news without blaming someone else?

Recent news has Britney Spears taken to the hospital for mental evaluation and her custody and vistitaion of her children taken away. If anyone knows Ms Spears past, they'll understand that she consistently has moments of acting mentally disturbed along with disrespecting the law and court orders. So this recent news shouldn't be that surprising to anyone. I first watched the story on Fox News and they reported the story fairly and with facts. Later I watched it on CNN and the reporters were all commenting in such ways which made it look unfair that Britney Spears was treated in such a way and putting more negative comments towards Kevin Federline as if it was his fault for which Britney Spears behaves. Why can't CNN just agree that Britney Spears is quite the 'basket case' sometimes and lives an improper lifestyle of partying and not being responsible enought suited to raise her children. Why can't CNN just report the news without making the guilty look like the victim? more

Resolved Question: What do you make of the latest Britney Spears news?

Though I've always thought of her a crazy, I also thought she was incredibly self-centered and needed to be a better mother. Now, I kinda feel sorry for her and hope she gets the help she needs. What is your take on it and do you think she'll be able to overcome this? mrs.nikita_ramirez: When people say it's good for her kids, they mean she's obviously a very mentally sick person. She nees help in getting her life together in order to be a better mother. Though I'm sure she loves her children, she's too sick to be the best mom she can be so does need help. I don't think it's fair to blame this on the public. Blame it on all the pressure she faced from ppl aroudn her to be a superstar and the fact that she never had a chance to have a normal childhood and doesn't have anyone she can truly trust around her. more

Resolved Question: what's ur opinion on the whole "jamie lynn spears is pregnant" thing? i have the article...?

okay here's some of the article: Jamie Lynn Spears, the 16-year old sister of Britney Spears, OK magazine Wednesday that she was 12 weeks pregnant and plans to have the baby. According to the OK Magazine, Jamie Lynn confirmed the pregnancy through a home test. She later paid a visit to the doctor, who corroborated the news. She said she revealed the news to her parents shortly before Thanksgiving. She named the father as her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge, the son of a paper-mill worker in her home state of Louisiana whom she reportedly met at church. After Spears interview, Nickelodeon issued a statement saying, "We respect Jamie Lynn's decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is Jamie's well being." The filming for “Zoey 101” has finished and episodes are scheduled to begin airing in February. Asked by the magazine about what message her pregnancy might send to young people, she replied, "I definitely don't think it's something you should do; it's better to wait. But I can't be judgmental because it's a position I put myself in." Associated Press said Nickelodeon is talking with veteran newswoman Linda Ellerbe about a special show. “I think it’s important that something be done,” Ellerbee told The Associated Press on Thursday. “But I think it’s important that it be done in a measured way, and not just to feed the beast of news stories”. Ellerbee wants to create a show that will be aa broad discussion about how people know they're in love, when is the right time to have sex and what are the value systems of their parents and friends. A Nickelodeon spokesman, Dan Martinsen, confirmed the discussions but said no decision had been made. Jamie Lynn Spears is perhaps the most famous young teenager to become publicly pregnant in recent years, and her situation immediately became the topic of the day. The news of Spears' pregnancy came less than two weeks after a government report found that the incidence of teen pregnancy was rising for the first time since 1991. According to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the 2006 teen birth rate was 41.9 births per 1,000 females aged 15- 19, compared to 40.5 births per 1,000 in 2005. It was the first increase in 15 years. Meanwhile, the 19 years-old Casey Aldridge, could face some legal problems. In California where Jamie Lynn Spears tapes her TV show, it's a misdemeanor to have sex with someone younger than 18 if the offender is less than three years older. It states clearly in the Californian Penal Code that any person who engages in an act of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor (under 18) who is not more than three years older or three years younger than the perpetrator, is guilty of a misdemeanor and faces up to one year in a county jail," said criminal defense attorney Jim Hammer for Fox News. so what do you think? i think it's really sad, i always thought she was the "good one". well i guess both her sister and her aren't the best people we wish they were. i mean, pregnant at 16? come on! more

Yet, when Megan Williams (A Black Woman) was held Hostage for a Week and was subjected to rape and other atrocities ... This story bearly got a "blur." We are STILL getting NEWS COVERAGE and Retrospectives on DEAD Celebrities like Elvis Presley, Princess Diana, and Marilyn Monroe. Yet, when Yolanda King the oldest child of Martin Luther King Jr. and his Activist wife the late Coretta Scott King ... when Yolanda died earlier this year ... Where was the RETROSPECTIVE on HER LIFE ... She was an Actress AND an ACTIVIST. She and Her Parents left a TREMENDOUS legacy! Yet, bearly a BLUR! more

Resolved Question: aunt bea asked aBOUT BRITNEY AND i SAY THE NEW ALBUM NAME?

I believe the new album name should be.."Bare Boxed Gal"...lol...aUNT bEA SAID_ just noticed this latest Britney Spears news story and yes I'm sick of her too but this is funny... "Spears asks fans to name her new album" http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070614/ap_o... First of, all if you want to vote on the title of her new alum you must be a member of her fan club (does she have fans?) and it will cost you $24.99 a year to join. YOU HAVE TO PAY HER TO BE A FAN? So for those of us who would rather spend $24.99 on a dead worm than spend it on Britney Spears, what are your suggestions for the title of her upcoming album? Mine is: “I’m a bad mother”. more

Resolved Question: Is Britneys' "Blackout" a BURNOUT?

Although a lot of fans appairently are buying Britney Spears' latest album, some critics are panning it. One critic went so far as to say: "If a blow-up sex doll could sing, this is what she'd sound like," wrote Jim Farber. "In terms of studio trickery, Paris Hilton's album was practically 'unplugged' compared to this." (source, below) I've heard a few cuts. My only comments about it: If you like listening to and paying for the slow implosion of a washed-up pop-tart who utilizes studio trickery, then this album is for you. What say you?

Resolved Question: Do you believe that the news feeds our fears and invites more bad events to happen?

I notice that if one tragic event happens, a week later, or month later, if something similar happens, the news dwells on it? Do you remember the Crocodile Hunter and the sting ray? All of a sudden people were afraid of them. And on the Today show, they interviewed a man who was stabbed by one the next week. Like that ever made the news before? And here in Philly, every morning they report the numbers of the people who were killed overnight--they say, "now the death toll is up to 315 this year..." Isn't that inviting more people to kill, like they want to increase the number? And people like Britney Spears, does it seem like we are drawn to watch one's demise than one's healing? more

Resolved Question: What is the latest news on Britney Spears? Has she done anything else silly recently?

Personally I feel sorry for the girl .. she's gone down the slippery road and nearly hit rock bottom. Hopefully having her kids taken away from her will be her wake up call. I feel Britney is suffering from severe depression and has been unable to cope with the pressure of being a mum and her marriage break up. Her drinking is her escape goat to push down all the guilt she is carrying on her shoulders. She needs to help herself and be serious about rehab, give up the booze and start building a relationship with her kids. What do you think? more

Resolved Question: Who Agrees Paparazzi Are Jerks?

I mean...come on. The latest on Britney Spears was that she ran over some guys' foot while driving out of a parking garage or something. It was right after she found out she lost visitation with her kids...give the girl a break! She's having a HARD time right now! The paparzzi are way out of line, and should STOP. Taking pictures of someone is one thing, and totally ruining someone's life is another. The way they go about it with Britney, is totally and completely unhuman. They surround her car, taking pictures, yelling at her. How would they like it if someone did it to them??? I know that it's not fun at all, and it's totally rude. Doesn't anyone agree with me that the paparazzi need to back off? Seems everytime people like Britney are in the news, the reason the situation happened was because the paparazzi were hounding them! Does anyone agree with me that they are total jerks and need to back off? more

Resolved Question: Help Britney!!!?

The latest news displayed on Yahoo is that Britney Spears has run over a photographers foot while trying to back up while her car was surrounded by photographers. If you have watched this video on utube or the hit and run video on utube, you will notice that Britney is being harrassed by these photographers and one of these days someone is going to get hurt, does this have to be another Diana story? Dont they realize that they are driving her crazy, just leave the poor girl alone. I really feel that they are crossing the line.... Does anyone agree?????!!@!??? And for all you people who say she wants the attention give me a break, she is out going to get food, or dorcotrs appointments, you saying she should stay home? That is NOT fair!! How would you like it if you had to stay home? more

Resolved Question: I know it's stupid , but why do I get the impression that Britney Spears is so close to commit suicide ???

I always keep updated with her latest news and yet there are only bad things , she's constantly having breakdowns ... - the custody battle - the criticism about her latest appearence at the VMA'S - the accusations of her former bodyguard who claims britney used drugs and got naked in front of her children - the hit and run she had been lately charged with - the papparazis who follow her everywhere ... WITH all that going-on I think she's not gonna make it I'm a fan and I'm worried about britney ... I think her life is so bad actually that she's going to kill herself just like Anna Nicole Smith & others did . more

Resolved Question: Britney Spears wants at least one million dollars to pose for Playboy...Fair or Ridiculous?

Playboy won't pay for Britney | Posted Sep 17th 2007 4:06PM by Anne Metz Filed under: Style in the media, Celebrity Style If her embarrassing performance at the VMAs was any sort of indication of Britney Spears' future success then I think we can all say that a star has fallen. Should you need any tangible evidence of her decline, consider her latest PR disaster. The National Ledger reports that Playboy is only willing to shell out $400,000 to have Spears pose nude for a magazine feature. Britney insists that she won't take off her clothes for less than seven figures, a sum that has been scoffed at by editor/founder/whatever Hugh Hefner. Boffo! Can we all just agree that this is good news? Seriously, we've seen all there is to see of Britney Spears for free. The only thing Playboy could add to that is some air-brushing and good lighting, which would be a small improvement, but not enough to make up for the fact that no one out there wants to see that woman naked. (If I'm wrong about this, please let me know.) You know that saying about how you can't put the toothpaste back into the tube? Well, I think that pretty much sums up Britney Spears. more

Resolved Question: Isn't it amazing how bad britney spears body has fallen apart, not to mention her singing?

I was watching on the news her performance. She used to be so in shape and a great dancer. In her performance, she looks bad compared to where she even with 2 kids. Maybe she needs to spend less time partying and more time at the gym. And here choreography... was there any choreography? I think this is the beginning of the final end for britney as a pop singer. I don't think she has the vocals or talent to make it just on her voice as some do later in life. more

Resolved Question: Does anyone care about music anymore?

It seems to me that the industry is in a new phase where the musicians are becoming more important than their music. We hear tirelessly on legitimate news venues about people like Britney Spears, or the latest scandal so-and-so was in, or how Fergie was spotted working out. Even in rock and roll forums and magazines people are more concentrated on gossip and the details of the musicians than anyone really cares about listening to their album, or seeing their live performance. How much do you care about what your favorite musician ate for breakfast? more

Resolved Question: i just had a dream that an asteroid is going to hit earth?

in my vision (dream) it was night time for days and days and everyone was going crazy wondering what happened it was on the news and everything and suddenly on T.V... "BREAKING NEWS! NASA has discovered an asteroid will soon it Earth!" the news anchor says. It was like a huge deal to all of america kinda like britney spears going crazy and america standing by to see what happens next, well it was the same just a little different we were waiting to die and then like millions of people all went outside and looked at the sky and there was a flickering red light in the air and it was coming closer very slowly and it was getting bigger then we saw that it was fire and it got so close and my heart was racing and i was hugging my mom and 4 days later after camping outside it was daylight again only to see a huge rock coming towards my face and i wanted to die my heart was racing then i woke up on my fluffy pink bed with my cute pink pillows safe and sound... all of my dreams come true :( more

Resolved Question: Did you hear about the latest teenage pregnancy?

No surprise really, but Britney Spears' 16-year-old sister Jamie is rumored to be pregnant! Here's the link to the article: http://news.aol.com/the-cooler-blog/2007/07/25/jamie-lynn-spears-pregnant/ Sad that there are so many teenage pregnancies. It's apparent every day when I read the questions on here! For all you people slamming the source, I used the word "rumored to be pregnant." I have no idea if it's a fact. But the National Enquirer DOES report a lot of things that end up being true! The alien babies tabloid is NOT the Enquirer, they are strictly celeb news. more

Resolved Question: Can anyone provide me with some point by point rebuttal on this article "Cult of Amateurs"?

The Cult of the Amateur Sign In to E-Mail or Save This Print Share Digg Facebook Newsvine Permalink By MICHIKO KAKUTANI Published: June 29, 2007 Digital utopians have heralded the dawn of an era in which Web 2.0 — distinguished by a new generation of participatory sites like MySpace.com and YouTube.com, which emphasize user-generated content, social networking and interactive sharing — ushers in the democratization of the world: more information, more perspectives, more opinions, more everything, and most of it without filters or fees. Yet as the Silicon Valley entrepreneur Andrew Keen points out in his provocative new book, “The Cult of the Amateur,” Web 2.0 has a dark side as well. Skip to next paragraph Catherine Betts Andrew Keen THE CULT OF THE AMATEUR How Today’s Internet Is Killing Our Culture By Andrew Keen 228 pages. Doubleday. $22.95. Tony Cenicola/The New York Times Mr. Keen argues that “what the Web 2.0 revolution is really delivering is superficial observations of the world around us rather than deep analysis, shrill opinion rather than considered judgment.” In his view Web 2.0 is changing the cultural landscape and not for the better. By undermining mainstream media and intellectual property rights, he says, it is creating a world in which we will “live to see the bulk of our music coming from amateur garage bands, our movies and television from glorified YouTubes, and our news made up of hyperactive celebrity gossip, served up as mere dressing for advertising.” This is what happens, he suggests, “when ignorance meets egoism meets bad taste meets mob rule.” This book, which grew out of a controversial essay published last year by The Weekly Standard, is a shrewdly argued jeremiad against the digerati effort to dethrone cultural and political gatekeepers and replace experts with the “wisdom of the crowd.” Although Mr. Keen wanders off his subject in the later chapters of the book — to deliver some generic, moralistic rants against Internet evils like online gambling and online pornography — he writes with acuity and passion about the consequences of a world in which the lines between fact and opinion, informed expertise and amateurish speculation are willfully blurred. For one thing, Mr. Keen says, “history has proven that the crowd is not often very wise,” embracing unwise ideas like “slavery, infanticide, George W. Bush’s war in Iraq, Britney Spears.” The crowd created the tech bubble of the 1990s, just as it created the disastrous Tulipmania that swept the Netherlands in the 17th century. Mr. Keen also points out that Google search results — which answer “search queries not with what is most true or most reliable, but merely what is most popular” — can be manipulated by “Google bombing” (which “involves simply linking a large number of sites to a certain page” to “raise the ranking of any given site in Google’s search results”). And he cites a recent Wall Street Journal article reporting that hot lists on social networking Web sites are often shaped by a small number of users: that at Digg.com, which has 900,000 registered users, 30 people were responsible at one point for submitting one-third of the postings on the home page; and at Netscape.com, a single user was behind 217 stories over a two-week period, or 13 percent of all stories that reached the most popular list in that period. Because Web 2.0 celebrates the “noble amateur” over the expert, and because many search engines and Web sites tout popularity rather than reliability, Mr. Keen notes, it’s easy for misinformation and rumors to proliferate in cyberspace. For instance, the online encyclopedia Wikipedia (which relies upon volunteer editors and contributors) gets way more traffic than the Web site run by Encyclopedia Britannica (which relies upon experts and scholars), even though the interactive format employed by Wikipedia opens it to postings that are inaccurate, unverified, even downright fraudulent. This year it was revealed that a contributor using the name Essjay, who had edited thousands of Wikipedia articles and was once one of the few people given the authority to arbitrate disputes between writers, was a 24-year-old named Ryan Jordan, not the tenured professor he claimed to be. Since contributors to Wikipedia and YouTube are frequently anonymous, it’s hard for users to be certain of their identity — or their agendas. Postings about political candidates, for instance, can be made by opponents disguising their motives; and propaganda can be passed off as news or information. For that matter, as Mr. Keen points out, the idea of objectivity is becoming increasingly passé in the relativistic realm of the Web, where bloggers cherry-pick information and promote speculation and spin as fact. Whereas historians and journalists traditionally strived to deliver the best available truth possible, many bloggers revel in their own subjectivity, and many Web 2.0 users simply use the Net, in Mr. Keen’s words, to confirm their “own partisan views and link to others with the same ideologies.” What’s more, as mutually agreed upon facts become more elusive, informed debate about important social and political issues of the day becomes more difficult as well. Although Mr. Keen’s objections to the publishing and distribution tools the Web provides to aspiring artists and writers sound churlish and elitist — he calls publish-on-demand services “just cheaper, more accessible versions of vanity presses where the untalented go to purchase the veneer of publication” — he is eloquent on the fallout that free, user-generated materials is having on traditional media. Mr. Keen argues that the democratized Web’s penchant for mash-ups, remixes and cut-and-paste jobs threaten not just copyright laws but also the very ideas of authorship and intellectual property. He observes that as advertising dollars migrate from newspapers, magazines and television news to the Web, organizations with the expertise and resources to finance investigative and foreign reporting face more and more business challenges. And he suggests that as CD sales fall (in the face of digital piracy and single-song downloads) and the music business becomes increasingly embattled, new artists will discover that Internet fame does not translate into the sort of sales or worldwide recognition enjoyed by earlier generations of musicians. “What you may not realize is that what is free is actually costing us a fortune,” Mr. Keen writes. “The new winners — Google, YouTube, MySpace, Craigslist, and the hundreds of start-ups hungry for a piece of the Web 2.0 pie — are unlikely to fill the shoes of the industries they are helping to undermine, in terms of products produced, jobs created, revenue generated or benefits conferred. By stealing away our eyeballs, the blogs and wikis are decimating the publishing, music and news-gathering industries that created the original content those Web sites ‘aggregate.’ Our culture is essentially cannibalizing its young, destroying the very sources of the content they crave.” more

Resolved Question: White Woman of the Moment . . .?

I used to visit a website called Something Awful. They came up with this theory called The WWofM or White Woman of the Moment. It basically is an examination of the media's fixation on the scandalous or unfortunate life of a Caucasian woman. http://www.somethingawful.com/d/news/nothing-more-distracting.php Anderson Cooper stole this concept half a year later and claimed he came up with it. Because he's an idiot. http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/anderson.cooper.360/blog/2006/03/diagnosing-missing-white-woman.html Anyway, what do you think? Do you think it has validity? Think about it: Natalee Holloway The Run Away Bride Anna Nicole Smith Britney Spears Paris Hilton Lindsey Lohan Terri Schiavo Martha Stewart Laci Peterson And I'm sure there are more . . . . If this is a valid observation and workable theory, why do you think it happens? more
