"Hi, ladies," Logan greeted. "Today we're looking at an area of journalism that some of us might be overly familiar with." He gave Zero a look, smiling slightly in sympathy.

"There's a specific area of journalism that focuses on the personal lives of people, primarily celebrities, and usually those in the entertainment industry, like actors and musicians. Undoubtedly you're familiar with it on some level, how there are magazines and TV shows that exist to discuss and pick apart gossip about those in the limelight."

He gestured to the laptops open for them to use. "Your assignment for today? Find a piece of gossip-column 'news' and tell me what effect you think that has on the public - by which I mean, do you think people will think less of them? Better of them? What do you think about it personally?

"And keep in mind, your final projects are due next week."

Zero slumped down in her seat and glared during the lecture. Squalling paparazzi. Squalling Fame 'n Shame.

The tumbleweed had a lot to say on the subject, but didn't have vocal chords, so it decided to leave before it was embarassed even more.
