Nancy Grace drives mother of missing boy to suicide
From AP:

LEESBURG, Fla. - Two weeks after telling police that her son had been snatched from his crib, Melinda Duckett found herself reeling in an interview with CNN’s famously prosecutorial Nancy Grace. Before it was over, Grace was pounding her desk and loudly demanding to know: “Where were you? Why aren’t you telling us where you were that day?”

A day after the taping, Duckett, 21, shot herself to death, deepening the mystery of what happened to the boy

1. In a sane country, this would be a huge scandal
and Nancy Grace would be in the unemployment line by Monday.

2. I'd never heard of Nancy Grace until recently
My gym shows CNN on some of the TVs there. During that whole Carr thing, she was practically foaming at the mouth. Who the heck gave this nutjob a show?! She doesn't have journalist credentials. All she wants to do is express outrage over some horrid news story-du-jour.

3. Before being a bad journalist, she was a bad prosecutor.

4. Thank you for the reference link regarding her prosecutorial skills
It only makes me more bewildered, however, as to why she's been given a show. She's good at disgusted facial expressions, cutting in on comments, ranting, and wailing over nonsense. That's great TV lately, but not skill.

5. Yet another loathsome low. The hits just keep coming.
Someone should ask her what she needs to take at night to sleep.
