TED talk

I think that the implied thesis is gossip shows who we really are as a society. A lot of people are embarrassed or it is frowned upon to gossip and read magazines about celebrities. The lady on ted talk made a lot of connections to gossiping. Whether it's about gender, sexuality, or cheating scandals it all shows us who we really are based on our opinions about the topics. She gave an example of how a few years back Chris Brown beat Rhianna yet he just won a grammy and we as a society are supporting his music.
