A person should only be clean in public and wear
clean clothes in public. The dirty laundry
symbolizes the bad things a person does that
should not be discussed or shown in public. It
could also reflect the mean thing that a person
might think or want to do to another.
The movie star talked about lying to a police officer
when he was stopped for reckless driving. A news
reported heard him airing his dirty laundry in
public and then published it in the news. The
movie star was arrested.
