Cease Your Hunting for Privacy
In recent years, many newspapers and magazines feature stories about the private life of film stars, pop singers or even some famous political figures. Reporters disguise their identities, infiltrate the subjects' business and family, or even bug and wiretap them to get the firsthand news by whatever means nec
Their single motive is to raise the publication and hence a huge profit by means of satisfying the readers' curiosity in the name of "people's right to know." However, at the same time,the bad effects they bring to the famous people, the public readers and even the whole society are countless.
Standing in the shoes of those exposed people, you'll find out that their legal right of privacy is deprived by such press attention. What awaits them is severe injury. To escape the hunters, Catherine Zeta Jones, when conceiving her second child,had to pay millions of dollars in avoiding cameras of those who illegally broke in, the result of which is that the other day when she got up, the reports titled "Catherine spent six million dollars..." dramatically appeared on the front page of all news
What a ridicule! The reporters' ability to hunt privacy turns out endless nightmares of the famous who are under the pressure of public media and suddenly become sensitively cautious or easily raged, being afraid of losing their reputation and receiving accidental insults. Compared with Princess Diana who was famous and popular at the cost of her young, beautiful life, should Catherine say "Thank you?"
Thanks to whom? To the privacy hunters, the public media, the social phenomena caused by newspapers and magazincs; feature stories, or maybe all of us who are misled by such media? With our curiosity to others' privacy wrongly aroused,our taste of culture and life is on the decrease, our passion transferred from our own life and career. What's worse, we eventually become the accomplices who join in the vicious cycles of the whole enterprise.
At least two main victims suffer in the hunting. And the third is no doubt the whole society who bears all kinds of losses,from the suicide of the young talented actress to the give up of new stars in scientific field who intended to devote their brilliance to the whole world. Even the prime minister of Britain is recently bothered by the "scandal" of his wife. As a result, he fails to deal efficiently with the national events.
To avoid such tragedies, hunters, please cease your illegal photography, and your dangerous hunting for privacy.
简 评
这是一篇有关当前热门话题的立论文章，分析了媒体不择手段报道名人隐私的现象，斥责这种做法既伤害了名人，误导了读者，也给整个社会带来了不良的影响，并呼吁停止这种行为。
本文立意新颖，论点鲜明，议论紧扣主题，语言流利，用词准确，句式多变，表达较为地道且有一定深度。不足的是有关读者的立场似乎有些含混不清(如四、五两段)，另外也有少许需要改进的表达方式。
