Mild Media Rant (Who Me?)

Was sat for half an hour in a waiting room the other day and picked up an old Star 'newspaper' to see what I'm missing.
Nearly fell off my seat at their hypocrisy!
They ran a story about a peeping-tom character who'd just been through the courts and called him "sick", "twisted", and a
"pervert".
Now he may well be ALL of those things, but in the same paper they had a selection of 'nip-slip' photos (their words - not mine) and also
'up-skirt' shots.
So what we have are photographers who deliberately lower their camera's to see up ladies skirts and a newspaper that prints the photo's
(including the 'nip-slip' ones) for public gratification.
Kettle... The... Black... Pot... Calling... 
Why do I let these things get to me!?

If it’s shown in the papers or mags then you don’t need to feel dirty
It is extraordinary that it’s considered acceptable that the photographers can behave like this tbh, such behaviour not that long ago would have got
them arrested. I put it down to society’s degenerating moral values.

what if a random non pap bloke was going around taking pictures like that!!! How long do you think it would be before they ended up in the clink

Saying that gutter trash slappers like Britney etc who turn up wearing no underwear a super short skirt and making the most un-lady like exits from
cars is just fuelling the problem.

As a test, place a plastic mirror on a busy pavement, stand to the side and aim your camera at the mirror. Then see how many women in skirts walk over
it in one hour. I'm interested in just how many do so and also how many slaps in the gob / kicks in the nuts you get. 
Purely in the name of
science you understand The length of your incarceration will be informative too.
