"Tot mom"

[cpebbles]

How does such an insipid little nickname stick in the media and popular consciousness? For god's sake, either come up with something that conveys your outrage or just start calling her Casey [expletive] Anthony. I've pretty much wanted to kill Nancy Grace all hours of the day ever since she debuted on Headline News, but it's on a whole new level now because I'm blaming her for this little bit of stupidity.

[Socnorb11]

Yes!

And is there really any reason for her to cover this story and ONLY this story, for months on end? It's tragic, but it's not like Casey Anthony is a celebrity.

[KyCardinalFan]

Really? That's what they're calling her? lame.

It least it's not Caylee-gate.

As soon as I see Nancy Grace the channel gets changed. Luckily I haven't heard many details of this story at all.

Something has to fill the Natalee void.

The sad part of this is, that feeling bad because a baby lost her life has been replaced with feeling disgusted about the "reporter" who has been using her story for ratings, or whatever she's using it for. I would love to think she talks endlessly about it to help deter similar acts of violence by showing that in the end you will be caught, but I doubt that's the reason.

The feelings of sorrow haven't been replaced at all. It's horrific.

I just think her coverage is lame. And if Casey is never convicted, then she'll be sending the exact opposite message of the one that you mentioned.

At least you know it's important because half the screen says "breaking news."

I imagine there's a kernel of good intentions behind all of it. Problem is combining that with what is an apparently massive ego. Geraldo is the same type. By the time they get where they are it's less about whatever good they wanted to accomplish than it is about you knowing they're the good guys.

Sometimes I wonder the same thing about John Walsh, but it's hard to second guess someone in his situation. He's got a cheesy persona, but I think he's still genuinely about catching bad guys.
