Well put, but you don't have to be fascinated with "celebrities" just because mediots are. Just ignore the mediots. I've made a lifetime routine, indeed one would say a career, out of ignoring them and concentrating on the important stuff; you can too.
I would put the "immigration debate" in a different category, however. There are real people's lives -- lots of 'em -- that are being affected, and in some cases ended, by the way that situation is going. There are also ripple effects that extend far beyond the border states. (Incidentally, what happened to New Mexico and California?) Without taking a particular position on the debate, I would assert that it is one of those things worth caring about.
