Juno Blamed As Main Influence of Teen Pregnancy Pact

If the collective battling of society against every form of media as the main influence of its ills, Massachusetts has struck again by blaming the Academy Award winning movie Juno and the comedy Knocked-Up for a teen pregnancy pact formed by a group of 17-year old girls in Gloucester. I imagine all their dumb collective saying “hey, let’s get pregnant for adoption, that’ll be so cool! But we have to date a track nerd first”.By looking at it, it is just another scapegoat done to prevent fingers from pointing at the real culprits. What about films such as Fight Club, A Clockwork Orange and Hostel? Aren’t those movies enough to start a massacre every five minutes? The thing is, it is not proper at all to blame media; it is such a scapegoat-way of trying to inch out of irresponsibility. Another thing that they are trying to point out is that Diablo Cody, the one who penned the screenplay of Juno, used to be a stripper and even won an Oscar for her work. Our opinion is, is it her fault that she possess such a talent luck to win and be successful? If this is the case, then everyone should never ever talk about Damien Hirst or Amy Winehouse. This is even worse than blaming MySpace and MTV for the death of Stacy Kuleba, a teen who died after getting a breast implant.With the scandal quickly snowballing into huge media frenzy, we could only expect numerous debates from both sides, over-dramatic testimonials from parents and over-liberated answers from the kids. The question here is, does art imitate life or does life imitate art?
