The sand niggers killing the Jews and each other are no where near as attractive.

its the same shit over and over. Remember those beheadings a few months back, people were angry as hell, every news outlet would go on and on about the beheadings and what not. 3 weeks later, no one even remembers and some other news event is given 100% coverage.

Yeah. No shit. The news parade one-hour specials dedicated to that bitch as if it's a good thing. Of all the fucking things to run stories about...

This is just the media covering itself, attempting to make up for trying and convicting her parents in the court of public opinion..hence all the "this couldn't possibly be the guy" headlines. They get frazzled when they realize that they cannot dictate and control the outcome of a story.

No, they just are reporting on useless bullshit to distract the population from much bigger matters. Since people are interested in these kind of stories, it is perfect to bombard the air with.

So, you are insinuating that the entire free media is somehow in cahoots with someone, somewhere whom you haven't named to distract the public from something that you haven't specified. Is this just another insane conspiracy theory that has absolutely no connection with reality? The media reports on what sells and on itself to strengthen its image, thats all there is to it.

LOL good try, it's true the media reports what people will watch, and if you read my earlier post, you will see I agree with that. I believe the government has a FIRM grip on the media, and it is better to report on this crap rather then all the shit they are fucking up. Good try at attacking me though, always a good tactic.

I didn't attack you at all, not sure where you got that from. The government wasn't able to stop the media from publishing national security secrets so im not sure where you got the idea that the media is controlled either.

"Is this just another insane conspiracy theory that has absolutely no connection with reality?"
While it is not a direct attack on me, it was on my post and beliefs. Anyway...
I am not saying that the entire media is controlled by the government, I am saying they are greatly influenced in various ways on what stories to run, and what spin to put on them. All I have heard about is Iran, Nuclear weapons, Hezbollah, and now this stupid 10 year old murder case. Yes its terrible, but there are much more terrible things going on right now, and it is not in our governments best interest to have them reported on. This is all just my opinion of course.
We keep hearing about Iran, because they programming us to believe they are evil, and must be stopped. The exact same thing happened before Iraq. All you would here is Iraq, WMD..now its Iran, nuclear program.

As someone who is heavily into forensics and has followed that case for 10 years, I think that's kind of a retarded statement. I could spill about a hundred reasons that this school teacher isn't the person who killed her, but it doesn't really matter.
The real reason this story is being heavily published is to keep the public eye off of our stupid ass president doing stupid ass things. I thank my "lucky stars" every day that GWB didn't have sons, or else we'd end up with another idiot Bush in office in a few terms.

"news" is entertainment for most people. issues, global events, BORING... people want sensationalism. i honestly wouldn't have a problem with the incredible stupidity of your average american if not for the fact that these people are permitted to vote.

News is entertainment and its sole purpose is ratings. People want to see missing pretty white girls or murders. Its more entertaining to the average idiot. The average idiot wants to hear news stories about football and fluff, about what some stupid celebrity has a opinion of.
Major news outlets are inflitrated by hundreds of PR firms employed by government agencies and corporations alike and have less then good intentions.
Next time you watch cable news look for the commercials that are advertising ridiculous things like Boeing or Dow... How many consumers you know purchased a 747. These commercials are designed to appear to the average idiot that these companies mean very well even if DOW chemical created agent orange that gave adverse effects to millions of people. Its clever PR.
Not only that but then you have a echelon of special interests groups and PR firms under the employ of the Government to fine tune what ever americans view on their TV set, not even including the FCC (talk about fox and the henhouse).
When most people watch news they think of it as unobjective fact. Yet i personally witnessed a controversial murder when i was young and i learned first hand about how special interest groups hijacked the stories and slyly worded the news stories to back up their usually fabricated claims.
I thought to myself why this couldnt happen with larger stories and it made me think out of the paradigm. I suggest you get your news from a variety of sources and objectively compare each one.

It turns out the charges against Karr for Jon Benet's killing have been dropped, but thankfully, they caught the polygamist this week and can sensationalize that story.
