Mothers. She was extremely popular and served as an example of an ideal
mother for millions of TV viewers. Three months ago one of the leading US
tabloids published an article where they claimed that the ideal mother had
had an abortion at the age of 15. After the revelation the shows rating fell,
the producers broke the contract and replaced her by another actress who, as
they explained, had a better reputation and could pull in the viewers. Ginny
wants to sue the newspaper for defamation and the shows producers for
breaking the terms of the contract. She is sure that the affairs of her past are
not for public scrutiny. Besides, she claims that the rumors about her abortion
are groundless.

agree that pop stars have the same right for privacy as ordinary people? Do
you read articles about celebrities in yellow press?
