Writing Task 2

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Some people complain that news programmes and websites devote far too much attention to the private lives of famous people. Others say that the public is genuinely interested in such stories and that the media are simply supplying what their audiences want.

Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Write at least 250 words.
