I think the group mentioned towards the end of that article has it right,
"and also the absurdity of the media coverage on Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' new baby, Suri Cruise, which has reached stellar proportions, eclipsing far more notable events with more substance"
Its a shame to see what the world is coming too. What happened to rights of privacy? When did society declare people's lives fair game. I don't care what they do for a living. If no one bugged them about their child, I have to believe this wouldn't even be an issue. I'm pretty sick of the baby world now becoming fair game in hollywood. I can't believe anyone thinks a bloated pregnant belly is attractive. Demi Moore did it first anyway. And at least she had the decency to be painted.
