thats great, but did you have to triple thread it?

also, there are thousands of child abductions every day, why does the media focus its attention on just one of them?

Because shes kind of famous and rich. U think anyone would care if ur or my sorry ass was kidnapped?

I knew u would miss my ass miller. eek: cool:

Don't even start with the "she's rich" bullshit. We all know hundreds of kids go missing and all don't get the attention.....or do they??
Everytime i pick up a container of milk, everytime i put on the local cable network channel, and even when i'm listening to the radio i'll hear about missing children. Thank god this kid is now safe and alive. I just wish they all had happy endings like this one.

Ok but the question is why does she get more attention then any normal kid? Yea its very good that she is safe but maybe if every kid had the same media attention she had, more would come back safe.

Probably because as someone pointed out she was missing for 9 months or so. Generally after a couple of months you can forget about it =/

Yea but she had huge media attention when she was first missing.

i dont give a rats ass if some rich bitch gets found alive, i wish they woulda gutted her like a trout

that is NOT funny. hake: hake: mad: mad:

The summer usually is a slow news period, the media heard about Elizabeths kidnapping and decided that they were going to cover it(along with a few others) as the Summer of Abduction. Like the year befores Summer of Shark Attack, but at least she got back safe.

well I must have missed that whole sitcom, i'm sure they included catchy graphics and a theme song

Once again, Blitz astounds me with his overt attempts at garnering attention. biggrin:

she was also kidnapped from the inside of her home while her parents slept..it wasnt like she was out somewhere..so it was a different circumstance

Because those are parental abductions. Stranger abductions out of there own house....very rare and very scary.[/quote:08e1e]

You've got to be worried about what they did to her for those 9 months. Those people were awfully frightening.

The woman looks like the guy without a beard....

jerry seinfeld isnt funny... evil:

This is where I'd have to agree with you guys about American and world media...

Fucking spamming the shit outta the news about ONE girl who was kidnapped. For christ sake, they could use that news time for other shit.

Sure, one girl being kidnapped is a tragedy, but there are tons of other shit that should make the news.

Now that usualy doesnt happen usualy they find them dead that was a miracle and a act of God right their.

Heh, my girlfriend told me about this last night, she said her teacher interupted her class whith the news, she said he started crying halfway through telling the class.

You really do have to wonder what happened to her during all thoe months.

Who knows wat happened to her maybe she will tell wat happened.

Yep, but remember, the medias goal is to sell. They were able to sensationalize this one and make it sell. Its not about fairness, or whats the most deserving of attention, its about sales. The american media is moving more and more away from the ideals once held by the press and becoming more and more driven by the dollar. Report first, make corrections later.

Remember the networks reporting gore as teh winner in florida before the polls were even closed? Or how about when abc (maybe nbc) got caught faking explosions in truck crash tests to create a story?

Why did OJ get more press than other murders, or the Jean benet rmasey case? They had qualities that sell. I was a bit annoyed when the press on this case got so big, but its the nature of the beast.

At least this one had a happy ending. I know her parents have to be on top of the world right now.

Once again you try another lame ass attempt to be cool and insult blitz, don't you have anything better to do? And why the fuck do think i'm trying to act cool? I'm stating my mother fuckin opinion shitface

Wait until you have kids then criticize. Until then you wont understand.

I couldn't believe this when I heard it. Does anyone know if the kidnapper was the origional guy they suspected, the wanderer?

it was probably badscript thats where hes been all this time, that dirty little pedophile

Dude Eliz is kind of hot...I'd tap it

i thought she was 9 or something, and dont say tap say id ram it up in her like a shell into a 88

Shes 15 eek:

yes, it was the original guy they thought who kidnapped her. If they used her for sex then those 2 people shall die mad:

yall are gay, u dont even care that this little girl was found alive and well. u should be happy for her. but noo..u have to go and ruin another fucking thread. about the topic of the girl..all i can say is w00t w00t thats awesome she was found alive. i wish they all happened like this...

Of course I'm happy the girl is alive... any human being would be.

But I just brought out the fact that there are thousands of other girls and boys who are kidnapped, not just her.

even tho there are 1000's of others that are kiddnapped...it still sucks but at least we know one was returned
