Is the Media as Sick as Jesse Ridgway for Giving Him a Platform?

TMZ booked Jesse Ridgway within 48 hours of his pregnancy announcement. The LA Times interviewed him. News outlets ran the story for days. If Jesse Ridgway is doing this for attention, the entire media infrastructure gave him exactly what he wanted faster than he could have planned it. Is Jesse the sickness, or is he a symptom of something bigger?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the full ecosystem around Jesse Ridgway — not just the man, but the machine that feeds him. She looks at the clinical difference between trolling and compulsion, whether the financial incentive is the real driver or whether the money is secondary to the need itself, and what happens to a person’s brain when twenty years of attention-seeking behavior gets reinforced by millions of clicks and national media coverage. If the formula became the person, can anyone pull him back?
