Celebrity Upset

About 9 months ago George Clooney started speaking about Darfur. I was a little irked to suddenly hear people talking about Darfur. No, I wasn't mad at Clooney. He did good. I was livid with our news media, government, and all the other Americans who had no clue as to what was happening in Darfur. I just couldn't understand how a nation with an abundance of high speed information could be so dis-informed. Afterall, if I knew, why didn't everybody else? I suppose that Brad and Angelina, Jessica and Nick, and Tom and Katie just took up too much of our time. Here is a thought. Quit watching, buying, and reading information that spews gossip.
Now I hear Mia Farrow is in Chad to see for herself the atrocities of Darfur. I wish her success in enlightening the American people on the situation in Darfur. Maybe more celebs will jump on board. Until media coverage changes, the only celebrity news I want to be reading is that of celebrity do-gooders.
