　　W：When I was getting divorced in 1975，reporters and cameramen were camped out for days in the lobby and on the sidewalk outside.They came from all over the country.Foreign reporters too.It was terrible.My neighbors could barely get in and out of the building. One reporter，who had been a friend of mine，got up to my apartment after persuading the doorman into believing that he was there on a personal visit.I wouldnt let him in .He just wanted to talk，he said.I was certain that he had a camera and wanted a picture of me looking depressed.I just couldnt believe this attempt to invade my privacy.TV is the worst.TV reporters present themselves as having the perfect right to be anywhere，to ask any question.It doesnt matter how personal the matter may be.

　　People dont trust the press the way they used to. In most cases，stories are sensationalized in order to attract more public attention. Some papers print things that simply are not true.In many papers，if a correction has to be made，its usually buried among advertisements.Ive received hundreds of letters from people asking me how do you know whats true in the press these days.I find it difficult to respond sometimes.I tell them that there are good newspapers and serious，responsible and honest reporters.Dont judge all of us by the standards of the bad ones.Unless the guys at the top—the editors and the news directors-take firm action，pretty soon no one is going to believe anything they read in the papers of see on television news.

　　M：Next time you bring your kids in for a checkup，dont be surprised if the doctor asks about their tastes in entertainment.The American Academy of Medicine suggested last week that doctors work with parents to evaluate how much TV kids watch and what they see， what video and computer games they play，which websites they visit on the Internet，whether they view R-rated videos without the company of their parents，what music they like and what books they read.Doctors are worried that kids who spend too much time in front of the tube dont get enough exercise and can become overweight.The academy is also concerned that the messages kids get from entertainment media can make them more violent and sexually active.

　　The academy recommends that children under age two not watch any TV.“Children need activities to stimulate the brain during the first two years of life，”says Dr.Miriam Baron，who chairs the academys committee on public education.“They need feedback and socialization.”Older children，she says，should watch TV in a common area.Their bedrooms should be “electronic media-free”zones where they can have a quiet place to read，study，play or just relax.
