I disagree. It's not that the news is pushing a beautiful missing woman to make money, it is also that many, MANY people are following along with this case and have become sort of "friends" of Natalee's family. We are hoping for new stories and info, we want to get to know the cast of characters, and we want to help solve the case if we only could. WE CARE. So they go with the story.

I am glad they do. I know people groan but people find different things interesting. I find true crime and mystery interesting and find basketball like watching paint dry.

And I think we all would wish for that kind of coverage and support if it were our child. Natalee Holloway was not "the Lindbergh baby" and yet her mother and Greta and others MADE SURE to get this case enough coverage to keep the pressure on a very corrupt system.
