I don't watch TMZ, and I won't stay in places where it is on. I explain this shit to friends. If I disagree with a group of people's actions that are legal and shouldn't be legislated or restricted by force
then the least I can do is not patronize, and not watch, and let someone else, anyone else, know why and give them the information to make their own decision. Most people I talk to hate paparazzi, and it comes up after their third hour of watching E! channel. I just say "why even watch them, write them a letter tell them you disagree with their paparazzi mentality"
I've had a few people agree, and say they would join in on such a boycott. I don't feel like I've lost anything really. I still hear the gossip I still don't want to.
