Rant: "Anyone Else Sick of the Natalie Holloway Story??"...

Aside from the obvious combination of a missing pretty white girl and ratings can anyone explain to me why this girls disappearance is a national news story?

I for one loathe and despise all news stories of this type. They are fine for local news broadcasts but wholely unworthy of national attention. I am disappointed in Fox News for their near non-stop coverage of this non-story.

As a conservative people ask me all the time why I still read The New York Times. The answer is simple. Stories like Natalie Holloway, Michael Jackson, Scot Peterson and other lowest common denominator news stories are not covered.

There are many serious and potentially dangerous things happening in our world and our national obsession with pseudo-news and infotainment is depressing at best and disastrous at worst.

It's really pretty sad you feel so sorry for yourself. I will pray for you. In the meantime, she is missing and you should pray for her, and her family. They are surely going through a slow hell. Hopefully they continue to talk about her and find out what happened. Maybe when this case gets resolved and the person or persons involve get caught things will subside. Be thankful this is not your pain you have to deal with.

This has nothing to do with whether or not I feel for the family. It's about whether the major media, Fox News in particular, have nothing better to cover than this story. We are at war, Iran and North Korea are building nukes, China is a growing threat both economically and militarily. I think these examples and others are worth more air time than rehashing the same old information on Holloway. If there is new information than by all means let us know. But that is not the case.

Appreciate your prayers, though, and thanks for visiting and leaving your comment. Hope you come back.

When I originally commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and
now each time a comment is added I get four emails
with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
Thanks!
