And, I also see it and I agree with her. It's disrespectful to the victims... it's not their fault the Media fixates on certain cases. Like the John Karr fiasco. Yes. it pushed very important news off of the front page... however, so many posters said things like, "Who cares about Jon Benet?" etc. People should care about who killed JonBenet Ramsey -- a little girl was killed or murdered and someone got away with it. Someone should also care about EVERY child that is beaten, starved, neglected, and killed every day.... their plight doesn't lesson JonBenet's death any. Or Natalie Holloway. Or Laci Peterson's. People should care that Scott Peterson murdered his preganant wife -- most women who are murdered are murdered by their husband/lover. This is a problem. I wish every women so affected could be shown to teh world. Actually, I take that back. I don't. I wish women weren't beaten and murdered by their so-called loved ones.

So, it's okay to hate how the MSM fixates on certain cases, but there is a way to bitch about it without seeming to be disrespectful to the victim. Omega isn't grasping ats straws, she's right: I see it very, very often on DU.
