I agree. It makes me sick how the news picks favorites with the stories they cover. If Natalie was an ugly girl with nothing going for her, no one would care.

It reminds me of that episode of The Simpsons where Bart pretends to be trapped in a well, and when everyone thinks it's Timmy, they're all concerned and spending lots of money to get him out.. But when Bart falls in and everyone knows it's him, nobody cares and suddenly they can't afford to get him out.

Saying this may be a little sadistic, but I lost a friend a while back in a car accident; she was hit by a drunk driver. She wasn't what one would call attractive, but she was smart and she was a great person. The news could care less. Not long afterward, my fiancé's beautiful ex-girlfriend Amanda drove into a tree on a completely empty road and it's all over the news. What?!

That being said.. Sometimes I just absolutely hate the media.

Sorry, if this is a little bit off topic. How come people start saying good things about others when they're missing? Like, Natalie Holloway. She had a good GPA. Blah blah blah. She was a good person. When in reality, she's probably some ditzy, conceited, person. Understand this is a hypothetical thought. So that I won't spam, I think that Natalie Holloway doesn't deserve all this attention.


That's another thing that gets on my nerves. The same thing happened when Ronald Reagan died. There were tributes and everyone talked about how he was such a great man, and these were the SAME PEOPLE who bashed him to pieces during his presidency. Now, I never had a problem with the man, but my opinion of him didn't change because of his death. And when Amanda died, even my boyfriend was joining in on the saying wonderful things about her - he HATED her. People should just always be real, no matter what.
