Obviously, you have never been exposed to the tabloids in Britain, France, Germany, or italy. Whereever you find a free press you will find disproportionate attention to such material because itsells newspapers and TV ratings. The only sad comentary is that such fluff is all that most people are interested in. America has no monopoly on ignorance. It is a primary human trait. Fortunately we also receive most of the Nobel prizes.
