OK! Magazine's Misleading Cover Story




This is not okay for a magazine to do, and do the people who write for tabloids consider themselves to be journalists? Do they have a degree in Communications? Look at this cover:

What does this cover suggest? This cover suggests that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have gotten married. This cover right here could start many rumors for those who don't actually decide to flip through the magazine and read the story. Pattinson and Stewart are not married - but their characters Edward and Bella do get married, and the two actors just finished filming the wedding scene.
Sensationalism and misleading headlines is not something to be proud of. It's something that will cause there to be facts left out and anyone who just skims that will be misinformed. Seriously? The big letters "JUST MARRIED!" is that really necessary? This magazine really is trying to sell issues apparently if they have to resort to this degree of sensationalism. Obviously there isn't much journalistic integrity, but moreso the need and want for attention.

Quickie

So here's a quickie

My 20th birthday is tomorrow, June 7, 2010.
I will probably blog again on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Zennie wants me to keep doing Tila Tequila coverage for Zennie62.com since my blog posts are clearly making an impact & actually have influenced her. I have gotten to the point where if you type my NAME "nikky" in her comments the comment will be instantly deleted. I'm serious, go try it.


Too much Jersey Shore.

Watched the MTV movie awards.
Twilight won almost everything.
The end MTV missed three "fucks" that went uncensored.
Luckily the FCC is more lenient when it's after 11 pm.

I am going to work on my interview blog entry for the future of journalism
& maybe do some more vlogging in addition.

It's11:20 pm - I am going to go to sleep & then celebrate my birthday tomorrow.
