Last Wednesday Lindsay Lohan reportedly was arrested for a hit and run accident in New York City. Lindsay wa leaving her hotel when she struck a middle ages man and injured his knee and leg. Lindsay’s publicist says that the truth will come out and the claims against Lohan will be proved untrue.  Lohan is currently under informal probation though, and it is unclear if she will be charged with a violation of probation.  The cops are reviewing surveillance video to see if Lindsay even actually struck the man.  See the news story with the link below.

This could be seen as newsworthy to some people.  Celebrities’ lives are always being put in the news. Anything about their life can be found in the news.  To some though, Lindsay Lohan may be a lost cause and nothing about her interests people anymore.  It is one charge after another that she is facing and people do not care anymore.  What could be newsworthy about this story though is if the man accusing her of hitting her made up this lie about a celebrity and he is charged in some way for lying to the cops.  Whether or not this is exciting news or out of the ordinary it will be considered news because it deals with a celebrity.
