Media
 is increasingly interfering in the private
life
 of
people
. Many
people
 think ‎that they have the right to make
people
's public personal
lives
, while some feel ‎that it should be limited. The essay will discuss both viewpoints of the ‎controversial issue. ‎ A growing number of
people
 think that it is acceptable if
media
 (newspapers) ‎publish things about
people
’s
lives
. They believe that the
media
 own their
lives
 ‎and are obliged to tell every detail of their personal
lives
.
Moreover
, they think ‎that it is the
media
 that has made
people
’s
lives
 worth reading by other
people
. ‎
For example
, the
media
 publishes each aspect of celebrity
life
, whether it is a ‎marriage function or someone’s cremation.
Thus
, for
media
 getting into details of ‎someone’s
life
 has become a priority. ‎
In contrast
, some
people
 think that the
media
’s interference should be limited in ‎
people
’s
lives
. The reason being, everybody has the right to privacy, which ‎should not be tampered with by any means.
Furthermore
, if the
media
 publicize ‎details of someone’s personal
life
,
people
 judge them. Professors in a university, ‎
for instance
, claimed that students become conscious if their final project details ‎are leaked before the demonstration, and ultimately, they try to change it as much ‎as possible to make it perfect.
Therefore
, the
media
 should feel responsible about ‎what to publish about the personal
lives
 of
people
. ‎ In conclusion, what to publish and what not to publish has become a heated ‎debate worldwide. The essay discussed whether
media
 should publish about ‎
people
’s personal
life
 or it should be controlled. ‎
