I'm getting pretty tired of websites forcing the same small group of celebrities down my throat... It seems that every time they speak or move I have to hear about it. Is there a plugin like addblock that can block anything about those people?

Have you tried not going on those sites?

I can't really say I've had this problem on any of the sites I visit.

If you find it, let me know. Hopefully whoever makes it will create a version that can be used as a filter on my car radio. I"d gladly pay for it.

Seriously, I feel your pain. I"m a bit of a news junky myself and I get so tired of hearing "entertainment news" when I want to know what's going on in the world.

Start making your own Adblock Plus list, and spread the word.

If only someone would release a version of the arts without the dependency on big business.

Because the cultural sphere retains no shred of autonomy under late capitalism.
