These pointless activities are becoming more and more sad.

With the Time non-sense and this type of stuff I can't help but think of gawkers looking at an accident. They can say that it is a shame but looking and discussing it does nothing.

If Time and various artists/reporters etc actually cared they would try to work with the city, residents, non-profits to help the people they gawk at. instead they continue to gawk.

I'm starting to think that these media outlets do not want Detroit to improve. If it does they don't have their sensationalism. Media intention with the intent to bring attention and help to the city is one thing. Gawking at a wreck for nothing more than entertainment value is appalling.
