Here's the thing though.. yes, the media definitely picks and chooses the cases it that they want to play up, and they will always pick young, attractive in their view white girls to focus on. They will ignore non-white missing women for the most part, old, older women of all races, fat chick's and ugly chick's. ...and of course missing boys/men get no play. That's all a given and this chick fits that scenario.
...but it doesn't make the story uninteresting. We're interested because the bf and his family have been stonewalling and it's enthralling drama because we kinda know what's coming. If it wasn't for that shit, just white girl missing, it wouldn't be a thread on here...guaranteed...you know why I know? ....cause there aren't threads for missing white girls every day, week, month here on bgol. This one sticks out, like Casey Anthony, etc.
...and anybody is free at any time to find and post stories about missing black women, or men, fat chick's, ugly chicks....all the people that get ignored by the media, but for the most part nobody does....even those complaining.
