Beckham and all that jazz

flogen

Ok, I held off on posting this as not to interfere with the soccer re-jig and all that.
(bear in mind, I dont want opinions on who is lying etc, just on the media)

Do you think that David Beckham having an affair is any of our business, and have the media been too intrusive in getting information?

I would think that it is none of our business. If he did have an affair, then it is something for he and his family to deal with, and for them only. Even if he is a liar, so what? If he were a politican, or someone whos honesty is vital to his job, then ok, but hes a footballer, and his career is based on his skills (and looks :P) and not how honest he is.

Well, the Beckhams are media whores so they have to take the good with the bad.

However, it is none of our business.

And I think they girls who are talking to the papers/going on TV are total scum. I'm not excusing what David did, but he has a family, and what these girls are doing could destroy that.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

I agree with JV about the girls involved in this.

To be honest It's one of the few things so far this year that I actually think is news worthy.

for the most part i've stopped watching irish news and reading irish newspapers

I'm sick of hearing about bertie i'm sick of hearing about irish politics in general it's just the same old CRAP every single day.

if squeeky clean beckham going around riding half the country behind the back of one of the most stuck up f*ckers in england isn't news worthy, i'm not sure what is,

maybe mary's pantyhose that went missing off her washing line in the arsehole of dingle.....

its newsworthy in an economic sense, lot of money invested in those beckhams, and their "squeaky-cleanliness" excuse the coinage is an important part of their bankability... its a bit late to complain about media fixation with hyper celebrity at this stage of the game... personally i think its asinine celebrity cultism but its probably no different from the sort of worship hereditary monarchy used to inspire.

I havent read any of it and im not going to either. I dont think ive ever read a newspaper article that involved them as it would be a waste of my time to put it mildly. The only bits of the story i know come from my Girlfriend who thinks its "shocking" :rolleyes: .

The women that are telling the stories are complete scum as someone said earlier. One of them was on that Love on a saturday night show looking for a date. I nearly broke the remote in the rush to switch channels.
