I disagree.

I think that the worst kind of speculative tripe is put out by people like Nancy Grace and Greta Sustern.

They harp and hype these cases endlessly for ratings and money.

Then when the cases don’t turn out the way their pimping would have the public believe they should, the public erupts in fake outrage.

How many people have said that justice wasn’t done, when all of their information about the case comes through a media filter?

Ironic: The number of so-called conservatives who moan and cry about the “lame stream media” and simultaneously gripe about the “stupid” jury - the only 12 people to get the case without a media filter.

Got that right.

There are hundreds of children murdered every year in America. Many of their killers get away. Yet we are supposed to obsess over this one case like it was the only crime ever committed.

I make a point of changing the channel every time this sort of manipulative tabloid "news" comes on.
