Blogs about Morocco fanning only hot air...

When stories are told for the sole sake of making money, then these stories are more than likely to be full of hot air. Stories are told again and again, to the point they sound like they are told in slow motion. Yawns. Anybody can host a blog nowadays. Everybody can attest and advance hot air. Everybody can have an audience and manipulate it as they wish. Hot air artists have blogs too. They keep telling us how wonderful, amazing and unique they are.
Indeed, the world is more and more a confusing place today. Pure hot air is packaged to feed the audience. A few photos with nonsensical captions, boring and stereotyped stories and here you go, you can captivate an audience. They throw in a few exotic Moroccan recipes as if they were theirs. They publish articles about the Moroccan elections. They publish stories about the well being of animals in Morocco. And, what about the human beings, I mean the Moroccan citizens who, when they are very sick, they can't find a bed at the public hospital. What about their story?
I forgot, these bloggers are only after easy fame and money.
Indeed, the money is doing the talking. Writing only for money, sorry, I meant regurgitating stories...
Shame on the hypocrites and dishonest bloggers who are exploiting a genuine culture.
