Stardom

Leonard Pitts of the Miami Herald has a way with words which I admire.
Regarding reality shows and Youtube productions, he says that all it takes to be a star these days is a "willingness to be rude, crude, lewd, or nude on camera.
All it takes is a complete lack of personal borders, self-awareness or the ability to be embarrassed." We have heard too much about the boy in the balloon and parents of multiple children lately. Where is personal dignity these days?
