Is the Media Paying Too Much Attention to Charlie Sheen? Our Facebook Fans Sound Off

By Rae Votta Posted Mar 3rd 2011 06:30AM

While some may be loving the Charlie Sheen media explosion over the past few days (and even going as far as putting them into hilarious Internet memes) for others, enough is enough. We asked our Facebook fans if they were fed up with all the Charlie Sheen media attention and they had some passionate replies. Check out our favorite Facebook responses below.

Tina Dement: Most definitely! He is feeding on all this attention and it just fuels his erratic behavior. The man needs serious help. In no way is his behavior and actions that of a sane or healthy individual and the people around him know this they just don't care because they are getting free drugs, a home to live in and publicity. I would not be shocked to hear he has suffered an OD.

Kristen Lambert Hernandez: They're giving him the wrong kind of attention for sure. Instead of constantly posting his crazy ramblings everywhere, why doesn't someone stage an intervention and get him help? I don't understand why everyone is loving this, we know he's going to keep getting worse and instead of trying to stop it, everyone's got their laptops ready to write the next story.

Read more Facebook reactions after the jump.

Norma Meredith: Yes, I do. The more attention the press gives him the more his distorted image of his importance gets fed. I actually feel sorry for him because there is obviously something seriously wrong. At this time, he's just a train wreck waiting to happen.

Janel Peters: I think its him giving them exactly, what they want, an making so easy to feed on his constant ranting an raving. Its like desert b4 dinner for the press.

Lorry Clouse: I hate every bit of this crap! He is an awesome actor who came from another awesome actor. I feel sorry for the whole family. I think everyone needs to back off and let this poor man figure things out. The people who need to help him are his family. Not the public.

Barbara Brimm: I'm looving every second of it. The shows getting higher ratings now than it ever has. I loved the show. It wont be the same without him if they decide to cancel it. People are watching that never watched it before. I do think he needs to get his sh*t together though. Hes a little far out there for sure. I agree, hes a train wreck. But hopefully he will pull himself together for his and his childrens sake. I still have hope for him. He's a great actor. Just llike father and brother.

Michael John Varga: It's just like with Britney Spears and her downward spiral, or Lindsay Lohan. Don't give them any attention and they'll stop acting out, just like a 2yr old with a tantrum.

We did have at least one differing option:

Pamela Kay Kidd Heck no! why do you think your on facebook all the time, we love Popeater because it gives us the good juicy gossip we cant get anywhere else, thanks and keep it coming!!

Tired of Charlie and Lindsay! Why are we playing into and listening to the media memorialize these losers when we should we worried about loosing our country as we know it. Media stop waisting my time with worthless headlines about worthless people.

By L

Losing, not loosing.

By Sheila

The media is doing exactly what Charlie Sheen wants them to do. He is calling all the shots which feeds his ego even more! I wonder how he would act if everyone quit paying attention to him? I can only imagine! He is a sick individual that doesn't deserve attention! Why is our society so fascinated with watching the breakdown of the so called "famous"?

The media are...

By joan

You are so right Sheila. The media are a bunch of vultures who never let anything rest. They have destroyed more careers in both la la land and in politics. I wish they would all go away.
Too many personal things are reported whether wrong or right, enough is enough.

By ejkgolf69

I think the media pays way to much attention to all celebrities. They are nothing more than overpaid morons for the most part.sheen is truly out of hid head and yet the media has something new on him everyday. He is a drunken druggie and if he wasnt an actor would be in jail or on the street with no one writing about him except in disgust.

Every single late night joker is providing us with the latest Charlie Sheen joke and few of the jokes are funny. Really, is Charlie Sheen's lifestyle or behavior newsworthly in Hollywierd, Calif??? How is it fun to bring matches to a man who is on fire????I can't wonder how stupid I would be with his kind of money and fame...............

By robin

I'M GLAD CHUCKIE GOT THE ATTENTION, NOW FINALLY SOMEONE WOKE UP AND TOOK THOSE CHILDREN OUT OF AND UGLY HOUSEHOLD. I HOPE HE NEVER GETS CUSTODY BACK, UNLESS HE GET'S MAJOR HELP.

By Butt Lovin Bear

I say enough is enough. He has certainly proven that he's a certified drinking & drugging loon who at best has a handful of active brain cells left. And all of this attention has feed into his dillusions of granduer...Sometimes the media eventually adds to the problem as I beleive it is doing here.

By mw

Paying too much attention? yeah ya think so? Please, enough of Sheen and Lohan already.

By nana

Ever tried Bi-Polar medication?? He needs it now!!

By Loobydago

By TONY

You could call it a severe case of OVER KILL...The media is like a dog with a bone...LET IT GO ALREADY...No one cares and people like Charlie and the Lohans and SARAH PALIN are using you to further their own ends....EGO MANIACS...ENOUGH...THE MEDIA ONLY ENDS UP PUNISHING THE REST OF US...STOP IT

DON'T BE MEAN. HE HAS MORE FAME AND MONEY THAN YOU. LEAVE HIM ALONE.

By moudsie

Leave him alone -- we'd love to leave him alone -- if he'd stop shooting off his mouth. And sure, he has a lot of money -- but he really has no talent -- he's just playing himself and the show has gone from bad to worse -- I only watched it a few times and changed the channel -- it wasn't funny -- and he's too old to be playing this type of character.
