I would support lotsa coverage of the mentioned "pretty girl" deaths if they ALSO cared as much about the poor inner city black girl or the pudgy hispanic boy who gets raped and murdered everyday. It is pure racism/classism that the media cares about Laci but not every other murdered mom across this country.

I see your point, but I don't want more coverage just to give fairness to the pudgy and ugly victims...

The point is, disappearances and murders are LOCAL stories, not NATIONAL stories.
