Reflect  on how paparazzi culture and celebrity news outlets like TMZ contribute  to violent obsession in fans and stalkers. Using a real-life example of  a celebrity who experienced harassment or violence, analyze the role  that constant media attention played in escalating the obsession. Apply a  criminological theory, such as strain theory or social learning theory, to explain the stalker’s behavior and motivations.
In your response, consider the following:
How does the invasive nature of paparazzi and the media’s portrayal of celebrities fuel unhealthy fan behavior?
What societal pressures or psychological needs might drive a fan or  stalker to violence, and how does the media contribute to this?
Could the media and paparazzi have a responsibility in mitigating these situations? Why or why not?
