There is something ironic about the story of Prince William and Kate Middleton splitting up being the lead story on the news when the reason they are splitting is because of media attention. It is somewhat less ironic that it is the lead story when there are actually important things happening - Kasparov arrested, deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan, Brown meeting Bush (very scarey that one).
How does such a minor story, which really has no impact on anybody (except those directly involved) get to be so high up the list? Are we really all so shallow that this is what we want to hear about? Maybe the media don't think that we can understand anything more in depth.
