Your house burned down? Press conference. Daughter was killed? Press conference. Grandma was butchered by your father? Press conference.

Bodies of their children is not even cold yet and american parents are on tv, holding, you guessed it, press conference.

We don't rush to air all our private lives for the national tv stations. For normal people you would have to torture them before they would share something private with a wider audience, especially if cameras are involved.

>Why do Americans love holding press conferences so much?
They live in a pantomime society wherein everything has to be a lowbrow spectacle.
>>
This was noted in the book The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-events in America by Daniel Boorstin way back in 1961.
>Boorstin defined press conferences as classic "pseudo-events"—occurrences that are manufactured, scripted, and staged primarily to be reported by the media rather than to convey spontaneous, vital information
It's similar to the more famous Simulacra and Simulation by Jean Baudrillard but it's easier to read
