Do you like news which reveals the life of celebrities? If you do, then you must enjoy watching infotainment programs on TV. Many people condemn in content of the infotainment programs. However, the TV rating show that an infotainment program is one of the ‘most watched’ TV programs.

 

 

People who fond of information programs believe that the contents of infotainment programs are based on the fact and can be encourage celebrities to do positive things in public. They also believe that journalists of these programs always try to find the truth behind the gossip. Moreover, celebrities need such programs to promote their profile. These programs give a room for mutual needs: reporters and celebrities. Reporters need story, while celebrities need fame.

 

 

Nevertheless, there are also some people who strongly object to the good point of infotainment programs. They say that infotainment programs are merely about slandering another person. Sometimes, the program goes too far into the private lives of people. For example, gossips about a divorce or about someone cheating on his/her spouse often become the headlines. The worst thing is, sometimes, the stories are reported without firstly seeking the information or confirmation from the person involved in the stories.

 

 

So far, infotainment programs have become a dilemma for some viewers. On one hand, these programs can run stories on hos celebrities build their career and how they feel about being famous, but on the other hand, these programs also bring terrible consequences, especially for celebrities whose lives are scrutinized.
