My question is how does Natalee rate all this excessive coverage?

Is she the only "Missing Person" whose parents are beside themselves with grief and concern?

How about spreading the coverage and maybe helping other grieving parents find their loved ones or at least find some type of closure.

And I'm very surprised Jesse or Al haven't haven't played their race cards, asking why Black missing persons aren't covered in the media like little rich White girls.

Why does it matter? Who cares if she's black or white?
Why begrudge it at all?
It almost seems like reverse racism to begrudge it because she's white, and it sounds like jealousy to point out she's pretty - and resentment that her family isn't poor.

I'd move heaven and earth to find my kid and the fact that she's pretty and white wouldn't have anything to do with it.

This case is popular because of the exotic landscape and all the beautiful young men and women involved. It's pure escapism.

I remember Bill O'Reilley complaining that every time he ignored the Natallee Hollway case, his ratings went way down. He said he had little choice but to cover it.

I never understood why they have not made a stink about those poor innocent black guys that were initially hauled off to jail while the real perps were out scot free.
