JEFF WILSON Daily Egyptian

Americans are obsessed with news. Every- where one looks, it's news, news. Yet some- how it's not the ongoing war in Iraq, the Su- danese genocide or the failing economy. It's the Michael Jackson trial and "Desperate Housewives." Why should we care what Brit- ney Spears names her baby? Why should we UNITED NATlQfiSf care about why Brad and Jen broke up? More importantly, why do we care? Watch CNN for about 10 minutes and you'll find that after you hear about the new Pope, they'll switch gears to a big story about J-Lo or some other entertainment star. Watch ESPN's "Pardon the Interruption," and one will get to hear what the two hosts think Britney Spears should name her baby. If all this isn't enough for you, just turn to the E! Channel. On E!, all they talk about is enter- tainment news. That is if it even qualifies as news. They have a daily reenactment of what happened during the Michael Jackson trial and countless shows about nothing but gossip. Being charged with child molestation is se- rious business, but just because it's the King of Pop doesn't mean it's any more newswor- thy than John Doe. Most people will point at the media and •ay that they are the ones shoving all this down our collective throats. But they wouldn't show it if we didn't watch it. So why do we deem it necessary to find out where Cameron Diaz and Johnny Depp go shopping? We want to be like them, that's why. Better yet, we want to be them. They're rich, famous and beautiful, and we're not. So if a famous person buys Prada and Gucci, then you must buy Prada and Cucci. If you dress and act like Brad Pitt, without cheating on her, you could get Jennifer Anis- ton to date you. If Britney Spears names her baby Gertrude, then you should name your first born Gertrude. Without television, movie and pop stars, how would we know how to fix our hair? Would we be able to know what is cool to wear? How would we find out what married couples are supposed to be like?

Public sex: It's not all fun and games

BY M.K. MALONEY ■ contributing writer

Yes, there actually are lots of real prob- lems with public sex. And I'm not only talking about getting caught. In fact I believe that getting caught is one of the perks to public sex. Why else would any- one want to get laid in a men's room stall at a gas station? The first real trouble with having sex In public places is its addictive- ness. I would be willing to bet anyone that once wouldn't be enough. You simply can not stop. You've opened up the sexual flood gates — okay, so the library was hot...what would the Quad be like?

It was the annual spring game — Purple vs. White — and after a short break to allow for a passing thunderstorm, the Purple pulled it out 30-13 before a rain-lessened crowd. "It was exciting with all the people who came out in the beginning." JMU rising sophomore free safety Tony LeZotte said of Spring game the turnout. "It shows how far we've come. The rain caused them to leave early though, but it was a very good outing for us." scenery a The game itself was based on a scoring system foreign to spectators.
