出国考试gre作文范文（一）

　　Another problem with such a broad statement is that it does not define the particular level of media scrutiny. Certainly there are different levels of media coverage. Does merely the mention of ones name in a newspaper constitute media scrutiny? What about the coverage of a single event in someones life, for example a wedding or the birth of a baby? Is the media coverage of the heroic death of a firefighter or police officer in the line of duty ever going to diminish that persons reputation? It seems highly unlikely that in these examples, although these people may have been subjected to media scrutiny, these individuals reputations are undamaged and potentially enhanced by such exposure.

　　Without a doubt, there are many examples of individuals whose reputations have been diminished by media scrutiny. The medias uncovering of former U.S. President Bill Clintons affair with Monica Lewinsky will most likely overshadow the entire eight years of his administration. Basketball superstar Michael Jordans sterling reputation has been tarnished more than once by the media; first by media coverage of his gambling habits, then most recently by news reports of his marital infidelities and the divorce from his wife of thirteen years. Fame and fortune can turn an ordinary individual into a media target where reporters will stop at almost nothing to dig up dirt that will sell more newspapers or entice more viewers to watch a television program. It could even be argued that media scrutiny killed Princess Diana as her car sped away from the privacy-invading cameras of reporters in Paris. There is no doubt that there are a large number of people who have been hurt in one way or another by particularly intense media scrutiny.
