Media Intrusion Becomes Topic for Leveson Inquiry

Media Intrusion Becomes Topic for Leveson Inquiry

Privacy has quite complex relation with media. If there is privacy, there is no media and if there is no privacy, then media is blamed of invading personal lives of people, especially those of celebrities.

Similar kind of case has come forth where hearings are going on before Leveson inquiry where top celebrities have united and have come forth to speak about how they have been harassed by the media.

The 'Harry Potter' author JK Rowling said her privacy become farfetched bird for her and sometimes she felt like a prisoner in her own house. She said media has tried each and every possible way to invade her privacy, almost always.

One of the incidents she presented in the inquiry dearth with her five-year-old daughter. Rowling said that one day a journalist dropped a letter in her daughter’s school bag. She got so terrified that she broke down into tears that now her kids’ school is no more secure for them.

It is devastating and there should be some control on media in regard to invading privacy. Layer Cake star Sienna Miller was the fist one to speak out about her fear. She said wherever she went she was followed by the packs of paparazzi. Whether she went to party or to somebody’s funeral, media never leaves her alone.

Not only this, they even have made her drink when she was not and has reported sometimes utter nonsense. Hugh Grant and Steve Coogan were also among those who have been sickened out by such habits of media. They said media has not even spared them on phone. Media people had performed phone-hacking system with them as well. Freedom should be given but not to an extent that it become shackles for other person.
