Christian Bale Outburst

It is on every website and in every newspaper. What's making a huge ripple in America's media? A three minute audio clip of actor Christian Bale screaming obscenities at a director of photography on the set of his upcoming film "Terminator: Salvation." Apparently, the director of photography walked through a scene being filmed. He was angry. Um...so why is this news? How can a little temper tantrum surface in so many locations? This belongs on celebrity gossip websites, not on every outlet of news. People will read it though because he is at his peak in showbiz and people like to see failure or bumps in an actor's career. It gives people a sense of normalcy. Every human being is capable of having an outburst of anger like this. Last time I checked, actors are real human beings too. Give the actor a break. He's obviously very obsessed with his line of work and probably got too in depth into his character. I bet this happens on every set every couple of days. The fact that it was recorded is the news break. Let's focus on headlines that will actually affect us, like top rated coffee brands that are cheap.
