It seems that the media are caught up in reporting on the latest revelations of the goings-on of Charlie Sheen as if it is a matter of national importance ["Sheen files $100M lawsuit," News, March 11].

I suggest that no further reports or articles be written on him. He obviously thrives on any and all publicity, positive or negative. It is a drug that he wants and needs.

It is obvious that he is on the road to self-destruction. Remove the drug of publicity, and he will crash and burn faster, ridding the general public of having to hear and read about his latest antics.
