What's the buzz

The celebrity diving show, the new craze in China, has sparked a heated public debate after several stars taking part in them were injured and an assistant to one of the stars drowned. While the public has criticized the show for putting participants' lives in danger, the organizers claim that they are helping promote positive energy by encouraging stars to face some real-life challenges. The following are China Daily mobile phone news readers' opinions on the show:

The production team of the diving show is thoughtless. Diving is a difficult sport and requires years of professional training. The celebrities, who practice for only a few days before taking the plunge, do not display any positive energy at all. In fact, the entire endeavor is aimed at increasing audience ratings by having celebrities on the show.
