I completely agree with Nick on the topic of how much attention Clinton recieves over his supposed sexual advancements and what not. I think that the media has got to leave this guy alone. Sure, he is the President of the United States, and we don't want a crooked person running this country, but if he was any of the million more "normal" or middle class people, no one would have thought twice about this and Lewinsky would probably never have brought these charges against him(Whether or not there true, I don't know). Sure it comes with the territory of being famous to recieve all this attention but people have to let these people live their lives. No one gives a shit what Clinton had for breakfest or where Puff Daddy ate dinner last night. The amount of scrutiny these celebraties are under is unreal. Think about the death of Princess Di, it seems to be that could have easily been avoided. I don't think only yht e media is to blame either If no one watched such shows as Access Hollywood, they wouldn't run that shit. It's all about money and some people have no morals when it comes to this issue and they will do anything for a buck. To me, the state that this area of our society is in is sickning. I can only see it getting worse in the future.
