Thank you very much your opinion very helps me ! Can you ask you for other topic, this is very hard for me and I can't write nothing. Here it is: "Nowadays the media in Bulgaria pay too much attention to the personal lives of politicians, film stars, businessmen. Do you agree or disagree with this claim?Give your opinion supporting it with arguments and examples." The only one thing that I can say is that I agree with this because they are famous!? Please help me, I have an exam next week and this is only one topic which I can't say anything.
