Why are the Gottis now celebrities?

At some point, the genius' behind Victoria Gotti's gossip column, the family's reality show, and the kid's weight loss book all decided to legitimize and make celebrities out of this clan.

This despite the fact that the Gotti's only claim to fame is being the wife and children of a man who ordered murders, and engaged in who knows what else.

So the message here from the media bigwigs is:

We don't give a fuck that your husband/dad was a killer,
we don't give a fuck that none of you have a shred of talent...there is a buck to be made by us, and so morals be damned, we will make you celebrities to be accepted in entertainment circles, and to be watched on t.v. rather to to be the subject of deserved scorn.

What sickened me most was reading that Sean Combs closed his store so that the Gotti kids could do some celebrity-style private shopping.
"Oh yeah, your dad ordered murders...you're really cool. I'll treat you like just like Oprah or Tom Hanks."

Where is the country now on the sick-o-meter?
Fucking pathetic.

Blame the media for giving these lowlifes air time. Even worse are the folks who live in Howard Beach, Bensonhurst and parts of Staten Island. They worship animals like the Gottis.

Puffy should be ashamed of himself. Doesn't he realize what mobsters and their families think of black people? Somebody needs to slap him back to reality.

It was good when those Gotti f---ers got their asses kicked at Roosevelt Field awhile back. They were messing with some dude's sister and he wasn't having that. Folks applauded too.

That's an insult to all decent, hard-working Italian Americans. Hope you were joking.

Well,he was a very respectable man. He grew up poor and did some serious shit to put food on the table. You have to give him some props for all his bad and good acomplishments.

I like the show:) those are some very cute italian boys...marry me carmine! lol jp

It's the same in Australia with that Pauline Hanson bitch.

She's just a dumb, ignorant, racist heap of shit who the media have decided deserves celebrity status. I fucking hate her.

Our society makes rancid pieces of shit like her a celebrity. barf
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

it's not the media's fault for giving the people what they want, people who watch this crap should be ashamed of themselves.
