Scandals can draw considerable people’s attention to problems very quickly. The number of people intrigued by scandals and the intensity of their attention is inimitable, no speaker or reformer could ever do a better job. Also, by exposing the dark side of the society and weaknesses in human nature to the public, scandals is useful to warn related people and urge them to solve the problems.
Mostly people are deaf to the things they don’t care, thus the voice of reformers and speakers is only audible to a small proportion of the population that really cares about the affairs in that area. However, scandals are capable to intrigued indifferent people in a marvelous way. We people are curious and inquisitive naturally. Whether we admit it or not, we common people likes to look into big persons’ affairs and mostly the negative ones please us much. For by finding out spots in celebrities’ halos we can get psychological satisfaction to know that they are not superior saints, but fallible, imperfect human being. For example, as for some exclusive, independent areas like academia, common people have no interest to know what’s happening inside, for it has nothing to do with their daily life. They would rather pay attention to the sanitary condition of a small local hospital than urgent problems claimed by academic speakers and reformers. Nonetheless, once a scandal concerning a well-known professor cheating in scientific papers pops up, it will soon become a hot topic in ordinary people’s daily life. People know nothing about science will be intrigued to know how a respected, talented somebody do such disgraced things and how he/she will react to the public.
Even though most people intrigued by scandals just treat them as interesting, popular stories exchanged between friends in idle times and they will not bother to find ways to solve the problems revealed by the scandals, scandals can still be useful to catalyze solutions. The public just simply won’t let the celebrities go until they perform satisfactorily as reaction to the scandals. People will go on concerning the successive affairs until the related persons made proper amends. Perhaps related persons may find ways to blind public’s eyes and cover the truth, but still it will be a caution to them to act properly in their status, After all the voice of the public cannot be fully overlooked and it is always not a joyous thing to be criticized by thousands of people.
As people are so easily attracted by scandals, powerful persons may intentionally make out scandals to distract the public’s attention from core matters most urgently needed concern. Politicians are used to do such things. Once the national economy faces a decline, scandals respecting a corrupted official will distract the public’s eyes, at least temporarily. Scandals may fool the public in that way.
As I deem, scandals can do a better job to attract people’s attention than reformers and speakers. Also, it serves to bring about proper solutions. Nevertheless, scandals can be guided to blind the public the essential problems.
