Is this really news?

I feel compelled to rag on the mainstream media for what is passing as news. Specifically I am talking about the attention paid to celebrity couples. Bennifer, Brangelina, Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes. I checked CNN a few minutes ago and was appalled that one of the headlines above the fold was that Katie Holmes is converting to Scientology. Who cares? How far away is the day that what these people have for lunch gets press coverage? I'm sick of it. Seems like investigative reporting is being replaced by gossip. I want more.
