Am I the only one

[The.Tumbleweed]

...sick and tired of the constant media obsession with the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping?

Seriously. One old lady with health issues goes missing, and there seems to be foul play involved. Millions in resources are being expended to find her.

To put things into perspective, hundreds of thousands of illegal alien children went missing during the Biden administration. The Biden administration released them into the custody of strangers, and didn't keep track of them at all. It's highly likely most have been forced into slavery or prostitution. Ice has been doing a good job recovering many, but the media ignores that.

Nancy Guthrie would not even warrant more than a brief local news blurb if her daughter were not famous. There are other matters far more important that should be the top news stories. Sucks for her family. But hearing about it multiple times a day makes me feel like we are all being held hostage.

They could cut it to seconds by merely stating they have no new information.

We ALL know that the chances of finding her alive is slim, and none, and Slim left town.
Likely as not, the clown shot her, and for whatever reason, took her body away. No idea what was running through his head.

I am another that had the thought "Who the hell is she?"? And had to look it up.

Why are you apparently following it?

I've had all of Bill Hemmer I can take.

There wouldn't be a news story until I tracked down the prep that took one of my family members. Then the media would be all about my brutality while dealing with the situation. But it's newsworthy if the sheep get sheered. Yet a Wolf hunting to keep the pack alive is a completely different news story.

Are you kidding? If you watch the news - at all - you will be deluged with the "latest breaking news". There's no avoiding it.

Don't watch the news???

Not an option if you don't want to be blindsided by current national and world developments that actually matter.

There are options other than the television....for news.....

True. But I can't listen to them while I peruse the internet.

 

[hittman]

I’d surmise if anybody is totally unaware of this subject they’re totally off grid or not entirely honest.
TV, newspaper, radio, social media, YouTube, etc ……. You name it, somebody’s mentioned/promoted it.

 

[M118LR]

Where have you gone Walter Cronkite? Burying your head in the sand doesn't stop anything, to be prepared you must have current Intel. P*** Poor prior planning only leads to failure. I work in the elements, I need to prepare for tomorrow's weather. News before rack time, news when I awake. Be prepared.

 

[el caminero]

Agreed. TV, radio, papers, internet, whatever, I complain daily about the clickbait artists who write inane headlines.

Just once (if indeed this is the case) I'd like to see "Absolutely nothing new to report." <--- period

That sounds very monty python. and now, for the latest hot news everybody is talking about; Absolutely Nothing New to add. And on to the next story. Two firemen hurt falling out of a tree trying to rescue a cat, which ungratefully attacked them in the process, then ran away.
Or karen carpenter; we sure could use a lil good news today.

I feel like all media knows what we will go for. We can blame them, but it is mostly our own fault. If it bleeds it leads. Not unlike our cell phones and internet search engines, they know us better than we know ourselves. And don't even get me started on Facebook.

 

[vito]

Contender, you sound like you have the same news as I do. They lead with some homeless issue or something about the next event at the fairgrounds, weather, weather , more weather- every 7-10 minutes. Lots about high school sports and school issues. About 20 minutes in they get to national topics with a definite liberal slant, and at 30 minutes the whole dog and pony show starts over.

Not to change the subject, but I’m sure I can’t be the only one who is pi$$ed that they refer to Rene Good as “the mother of 3 shot by ICE, and Predator as “the off duty nurse shot by ICE”. I believe it should be “the lady who tried to hit an ICE agent with her car” and “the instigator who disregarded law enforcement orders and resisted arrest”. But hey, what do I know.

And those two Leftist activists who were shot are routinely referred to by Leftist media as having been "murdered".

 

[Ale-8(1)]

We're to the point now where "the media" is reporting on "the media" and criticizing its interference in the investigation. Absolutely crazy. And so long as everybody clicks on the garbage, we'll just see more garbage. It feeds on itself.

I'm with you, I never heard of her until her mom was kidnapped.
