Is there no limit?

I have to wonder how far the paparazzi are willing to go when it comes to invading the personal lives of celebrities and their families. Unfortunately, it's not an easy problem to address. The paparazzi used to have some limits, particularly when it came to the children of celebrities. But now that's all changed, and the paparazzi will be the first to cite their rights, but seem like they don't give a damn about the rights of others.

I am starting to understand when a celebrity just loses it and screams, attacks, or calls the cops on the paparazzi. But while the paparazzi are partially to blame, so are the magazines who pay just exorbitant fees for these photos. When one good photo can pay a photographer for a year, there are few photographers who will be willing to listen to their conscience and not take it. The magazines are sadly giving the public what they want. And I'll admit, while I don't read that type of magazine, I do watch stuff like True Hollywood Story on E! network. I also like shows like Biography on A&E.

Who will finally take the higher road? Will the public stop buying the magazines, will the magazines stop paying high prices for celebrity photos, or will the photographers clean up their act and show some kindness and respect for the celebrities and their families?
