A Gossip Columnist with Wit?

It comes from my past experience that good writers are hard to come by in the world of media. We are often bombarded with article from 'posh-spice wannabees and lovers'. Who only care about where celebs are, what they are wearing and just generally stalking them. God help the celeb if they sneeze around the so called journalist, before they know it, their will be headlines such as 'Top Celeb catches Swine flu'. But Alas! I have found a middle aged experienced journalist who can write about the celebrity culture here in Britain and across the waters to the States, without giving across a sense of pure passion and devotion to somebody that they are unlikely to have ever met.

And who is the journalist in question? Stuart Heritage is his Name and journalism is his game! He is a freelance journalist who sometimes writes for big name British newspapers such as The Guardian and The Independent.

He is Witty and comical and isn't scared to say what he thinks which often faces much criticism from different social groups. He often ‘bad mouths’ most American stars and receives negative opinions from the American public.

He writes about his interest but is able to make it readable for a wider audience and I generally enjoy reading his work. In my opinion, many more journalist who are interested in popular culture should take his example and write about the media, films, music and celebrities without being ‘in your face’ with celebrity gossip. I myself take his work and view it as very personal to my character.
