4. First off, they won't be alone if they do that
Second, that will be filler on any network that covers it unless there's actual news to cover.

True enough, NBC broke this latest story and they intend to ride it, but I don't think it will be as bad as it was in the past with some other stories. Here's why: ALL the media blamed the parents and the mother recently died .... before she saw this arrest. They will look like total fucking idiots if they play this too loose and fast. I actually hope that some of the worst offenders (You hear me, Nancy Grace??) will lose a lot of stature over this.

So I don't see this having the legs of other stories. It will get some big play for a few days or weeks, but that's it.
