ROGER EBERT SAYS:
It's time to admit the obvious -The public enjoys sensational journalism, and the media are only giving them what they demand. The recent "Ruby Ridge'' standoff in Downstate Illinois was thoroughly relished by the public, even while it was blaming "the media'' for prolonging it. People who say they deplore paparazzi journalism are approximately as sincere as smokers who lecture you on how bad their habit is.
