| Quote McLaren_Field="McLaren_Field"
So was Jade Goody wrong for dying on camera ?
Its the only skill she had, her earnings before her diagnosis would have been down to zero, possibly with legal threats from her franchised products suppliers (how much does it cost to pull "Jade" perfume off the shelves) and with an expensive lifestyle to pay for and two children to provide a future for then who can blame her - I don't.
The fekkwits who buy the magazines are another story, and I include my own family in that...'"
It's a tough decision to make definately, and from Jade's point of view it's a no-brainer - take the money and have your last shot at fame - so you are right, it's difficult to blame the girl. But I'm not sure it's the best decision for her kids. You and me will have no interest in her kids lives, or any story that follows - and if the World was made up of people who thought like that then her decision was correct. But the World is made up of very different people and there will be a huge, un-ending appetite for stories about the children, the husband, the father (who is another talentless Z list celeb). There is no amount of money that I would take if I thought it would make a mess of my kids lives. A clean slate is better than a marked card.
In hope they leave all alone now and in 10 years time it's all forgotten.

| I've never bought a copy of OK or Hello or heat magazine. Never. Not interested.
I wasn't interested in Jade Goody's "career".
I don't, however, find anything in the suffering and death of a young woman with children that makes me want to pontificate about my point of view on an internet forum.

'"
By posting on this thread, you have. Nobody has been "pontifcating" about the suffering of Jade.
The point of this thread,which most people apart from you seem to have grasped, was about the appalling treatment by the press and some parts of the the British public trying to turn an ignorant racist, who`s blood they were screaming for a short while ago, into the new Mother Terresa.
All the "new Diana" (as someone on the BBC called her)did was take, I was comparing her to someone in a similar position who did nothing but give.
As the story has been pontificated by every news carrier in the land it is certainly acceptable to pontificate about it on a public forum. It was clearly marked off topic.

I didn't give my opinions on Goody because at the end of the day a young woman and mother has just died from a terrible disease. Of course you have the right to score points on Internet forums by impressing us with your forthright and justly held views on the British media and all that is wrong with it. Good for you. Feel better?
You have changed nothing and a young woman and mother is still dead from cancer.
Oh, and if i failed to grasp the point of the thread why did my initial post begin with a comment about OK, Hello etc?
Answer me this honestly. My post wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, just expressing my view that the subject matter (the death of a young woman and mother) didn't stimulate me into an intellectual debate about Goody's career or the media in general. Why did you feel the need to react so aggressively to my post? Does your aggressive response perhaps indicate an embarrassment on your part that you didn't feel the need to express compassion but rather used it as a means to flex your intellectual muscles?

Firstly the term "muppet" if you find that term aggressive, god help you in the real world.
Secondly, believe me you really haven`t pricked my conscience,not in the slightest, it wasn`t embarrassed about a lack of compassion or feeling the need to flex any muscle intellectual or not.
What I am, is really ....ing angry, that an someome talentless biggot like JG is on the cover of every paper, and headlines of every news bulletin and has been for weeks, when decent ordinary folk are struggling daily with the same problem, without having millions of pounds thrown at them.
Even gordon brown is saying what a hero she was, same he can`t be bothered saying it to the families of the soldiers coming home in boxes. Or be d to visit, or the wounded he cant be bothered to sort out decent treatment for.
With Goody`s demise filling the papers the real storys or worth get ignored. What did the Labour Junior say after 9/11" good day to bury bad news"
