News Editors: Please for the love of God stop with the missing white girl stories

[QUOTE=monstro]
“I’m a single white female, so I have to be careful”.

The above was told to me last night while eating dinner with a coworker. And she has said it before, whenever the conversation turns to crime.

She sincerely thinks that she’s in extra danger because of who she is. As this is not born out by the statistics, I can only blame the media. I just wish she would shut the hell up about it. What am I supposed to say to her? “You shole is right, Missy Ann. All the niggers 'round here wanna rape and kill you cuz you’s so special and purty, yes indeedy. Meanwhile, my ugly ass can roam the streets with nary a worry! I’s so lucky!”

I am almost peeing my pants at this. Please do it, and record her reaction, I beg you!
:smiley:

On a related note, I have a friend who does not like to be out at night alone. Alone, in her Suburban, with her cell phone in her white suburb, because “something could happen.” :rolleyes:

Want to know who is in charge of all those CNN reports on pretty missing white girls?

As long as I am young and pretty my killer will get the death penalty (which is really more like 30 years of threats in California).

Solution: move to Texas.

If “real” news was reported, what would Nancy Grace do for a job?

Go missing?

  1. Idiots stop reading and responding to news stories about missing white females
  2. News media stops reporting on missing white females.
  3. No More Profit!

In other words, news media will stop writing stories only when people stop paying attention to them (and paying to read them).

One more example of the failure of unfettered capitalism.

is it unfettered, or is it part of the coroporate media conspiracy to keep us all afraid and consuming?

  1. Breaking news: she’s dead.
  2. A snoring baby polar bear! Awwwww!
  3. Profit!

Is that the one?

Come on let’s do this right.

Step 1: Report breaking news: she’s dead.
Step 2: Report other news: A snoring baby polar bear! Awwwww!
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!

I for one welcome our new Polar Bear Overlords.

There will always be a missing white girl somewhere.

It is NOT national news.

That is all.

Its not their fault the non-white ones are smart enough to escape their captors.

Thanks Slacker.

At least we aren’t bombarded by who killed Jon Benet stories anymore.

Because Scott Peterson killed her or was it Richard Jewel?
