The tide is turning against child exploiters like Kate Gosselin




Someone said...
I cannot believe how the idiots at ROL can buy into the TLC propaganda about Kate being this pure and innocent, single mother raising her 8 children.

The gossip and entertainment "news" sites get paid to say that. It's all propaganda, bought and paid for.

That's why what the gossip rags are saying is in such disconnect from reality. They get paid to "publish" the TLC talking points.

The news outlets that don't get paid by TLC are telling the truth.

Some notable articles include:


An early, and in my opinion, important article weighing in on the fiasco was by Froma Harrop, a syndicated columnist based in Providence, RI titled Children Should Not Be Props on Reality TV



The Vanity Fair articleThe Unreal Rise of Jon and Kate Gosselinby Nancy Jo Sales.

The Wall Street Journal article "The Kids Stay In the Picture— Sadly Enough by writer Eric Felton.

An editorial in The Pocono Record, Lesson from 'Jon and Kate' saga: Parents should grow up and get to work


Several articles by noted TV critic David Zurawik including,

Jon & Kate: Lying liars who lie on national TV




And there are a whole lot more in that same vein out there.

Thanks to the Balloon Boy, Jon & Kate are now mentioned and associated with parents that exploit their children in over 2000 news articles published in the past week. Sadly enough it took that reprehensible incident to wake the media up to the fact that Jon & Kate were doing the very same thing to their children, just in a slower fashion.

But hey, whatever works. The tide has turned and paid sites like Perez Hilton and Radar Online are no longer going to be able to sway public opinion in favor of Kate Gosselin.
