to get dirt on, aggressively investigate

The epitome of trash television. A show where a group of people sit around in a circle jerk babbling about what Brad Pitt bought from Starbucks the other day. It's done in such an obnoxious fashion and you wonder how it's still on air. Basically televised paparazzi shit, but with load people! The narrator sounds like he's been doing crack because he over exaggerates words and his voice makes him sound like a clown. Watching TMZ is a good way to simulate a lobotomy.
"Tonight on TMZAAYYYYYY... Brad Pit gets an AMERICANO and has a cowlick in his hair! WHOAHAOHAOA! What are we ever going to do!?!?"

A celebrity news source comprised of achingly annoying paparazzi and are completely oblivious to how pathetic and boring their news is. They will disturb a celebrity so much to simply get an aggravated reaction to report on. The organization on the whole is like a car crash-- you can't look away (at least for a minute) because of how stupid they are, which is why they're still around.
(Real Example)
TMZ Reporter 1: Johnny Knoxville was at LAX with a stuffed panda bear.
TMZ Reporter 2: What was he doing with a stuffed panda bear?
TMZ Reporter 1: I dunno.
TMZ Reporter 2: THOSE CRAZY CELEBS. PRINT IT!

A website/TV show run by people who wish they were as famous and desired as the pinky fingers of the people they so ardently bash.
Portly female TMZ employee eating a 1/2 lb piece of birthday cake: Did you see that picture of Britney Spears outside the Starbucks on Rodeo? SHE'S SO FAT!!
Middle-aged male TMZ employee with hair plugs: God, Dustin Hoffman looks so old!

'TMZ' stands for "Thirty Mile Zone," a term which originated in the 1960's. Due to the growth of 'on location' shoots, studios established a "thirty mile zone" to monitor the regulations of shooting throughout Hollywood. The zone was originally centered in Los Angeles around the old offices of The Association of Motion Pictures and Television Producers at Beverly and La Cienega Boulevards in California. It was often said that "Everything entertainment happens in the 'Thirty Mile Zone.'" So essentially, the "Thirty Mile Zone" represents the epicenter of Hollywood. Also- you see/hear this reference on the celebrity gossip show/site "tmz.com"

You know, the...worst humanity has ever put on in the history of the human race?
so terrible that I hate getting a clip to show you because I feel like getting the footage is giving them a fraction of support and that makes me feel like the devil? that fucking bad? ...and yet people still watch them like they're saying something important, when all they're doing is praying somebody will blow their brains out to preserve whatever measly shreds of journalistic decency they have left.

FUCK TMZ! If you're actually dumb enough to watch past the first two seconds without realizing it's sucking whatever intelligence you have, then you deserve your purgatory of rubbing tabloids on your genitalia, thinking you're getting laid and claiming to others you know how the world works, when really, you're just crying your virgin ass to sleep every night while eating your Dorrito and Cap'n Crunch sandwiches! No, seriously, you stab God every time you see this show! You rape a kitten every time you don't turn the channel!
