//Dear Editor-in-chief// // In regards to the article that was in print on March 19, 2009 __teenage girls stand by their man__ I would like to comment:// //They say us teenage girls side with Chris Brown because he’s a boy we would normally think as cute and we’ve liked his music so we must side with him, and I would be like some of the other girls who if celebrities got in a feud would side with whomever the media chose to back up, usually ending up with them while slyly bashing the other(s) now what I’m saying is that if people and the newspapers, magazines, etc. would focus on the real issue on hand instead of the big scandal maybe the kids reading or seeing it would be influenced enough so that maybe “if I was in that situation I would…” or maybe “wow that sort of stuff happens, I know if that ever happened to me I would…” or at least one thought that could better prepare young women for their reactions and young men to think of alternatives to violence but I know your newspaper in famous for addressing news the public would want to know or read about. But what I am saying is that like you and so many other newspapers would agree it’s all about profits and to you a celeb bashing but what no one takes in to consider is that us children/teens look up to these people adults have politics and such until of course the new president became famous among us but the teens and children would rather pick up a people magazine rather than a time magazine so when it comes to celebrities please try to bring out the issues to prepare your future.// //Thank you!// //Penelope Lopez//
