Gossip og dens konsekvenser

Gossip, is a story that often isn’t true. Maybe it is true in the beginning, but then more and more people hear it and tell it on so it gets wilder and more untrue. Everybody can start gossip, all from a normal person to a big magazine that prints their stuff in many countries. Many magazines live only by writing rumors and gossip, but how can a big magazine sell only by writing stories that isn’t true? Because people like it, many love to hear about all the rich and famous people, so they buy the magazines. There is many stories to chose among, so the magazine need to have the biggest and most interesting story to sell, and then some magazines make up gossip about a famous person just to sell there magazines. In the most cases it isn’t good things they write, its bad stuff, cause that what people want to hear. A person that the gossip has hit hard is the singer Michael Jackson. There is stories like he is sleeping with small kids and monkeys, and when the rumor is first started they are very hard to stop. Gossip like that against Michael has for example made his record sale fall with many millions CD’s, because who want to support a person who abuse small kids? And it got to be true when it’s mention in the magazines, or does it? But gossip isn’t only something that hurts famous people its something that happens in al kind of society, especially in small towns were everybody knows each other the gossip spreads fast. When a person ones has done something stupid and everybody in town knows it, it is very hard for the person to make his reputation good again, and he could easy get blamed for other things that happen in the town, even though he had nothing to do with it. It could happen for everyone, an adult at the work or a kid in school. So even though gossip is fun to hear and tell to others, you got to make sure it isn’t hurt someone, but most important, that it is true.
