Rumour Mongers

There is one more tribe of people I don't like. They are the rumour mongers.
Some people love making gossip. I believe that its a myth that women make more gossip. Men make their own sort of gossip without even realising they are gossiping.
But what really gets my goat is malicious rumour mongers. They make unwarranted, absolutely false gossip which causes damage to others. Please refrain from doing this. It is a character flaw in my opinion.
Make the world a more wonderful place by being nice to all. Life is short. Spend your time in making something of it rather than indulging in gossip.
Small people make gossip. Grow up.
This particularly makes me angry when it comes from people in high positions and journalists. People in high positions must live a life of dignity. Journalists should never forget what they owe to the people. In the fight to make ends meet they should not tamper with the very fundamentals of the job. Much of the breaking news on news networks these days are too broken. They create a controversy out of totally different comments made by celebrities. Anyone with average intelligence can make out their fibs. Whom are they trying to make fools of? They should behave more responsibly and give good short news. There is enough happening in the world to more than fill the 24 hours.
