His beautiful eyes!!!!:wub:
Yup. This is a perpetual problem that comes up anytime pap photos are posted. The ethics of it go like this . . . . . . the paps STEAL the photos, intruding on Michael's private moments. That is intrusive. They then sell them, which is why they took them in the first place. They are then distributed by internet sites and go everywhere. So we can be "pure" and refuse to look at them. Nobody will know if we have looked or haven't, though, and we aren't the ones who stole them. Or, we can be "semi-pure" and look at them. OR, we can look and comment. There are levels of commentary from the intrusive to the harmless. I think commenting about a tiny stain on his coat is somewhat intrusive. Saying, "There he is again," is not. And so on. So I guess it's for each person to do what seems ethical to him/her? Remembering that once they are out there, nobody can really tell if you've sneaked a peek, or not. . . . . . .
I hear ya. Guilty. Ya know, I considered that before I replied to the poster and I must say it felt intrusive seeing it but we all saw it so I think the intrusion already occured at that point. I felt guilty for SEEING the spot. He wasn't dressed for 'public display' . The spot was the elephant in the room that people pretended wasn't there. Sometimes it is better to acknowledge the elephant. It doesn't seem so big then.
they sit outside his house and when he drives off, they follow. lol it's not hard as it seemsSo if the paps weren't supposed to be there, how did they know exactly where he was going to be?? I mean, if this were truly a personal appointment, how did they know about it??

and vic, honestly, would u want someone in ur face during a private moment such as a dr. visit? coming or going? doesn't matter if thepics r out there, doesn't matter that we don't pay for them, viewing them is just as bad as being the ones snapping the pics. b/c we're analyzing them, his spotty clothes, his face, his eyes, his hands, the girl/fan, it's insanity imo.
when does it stop? fans complain about the media but they'reten times worse when it comes to things like this. oggling a damn photo and drooling when um, the dude was going to the friggin doctor.
and we wonder why he goes mia at times. my deal isn't 'if u don't like these pics don't come in here' my deal is i don't think we should post these pics here at all. it's a violation of his privacy. if he were at the ivy, it's one thing, but he's not. he's going to the DOCTOR
