Just look at the coverage given to the McCann story.

Just how many other children went missing in Europe last year?

I understand people have to make news and the McCann story is obviously more interesting for them to put out there than the average missing child story but the amount of money/ publicity/ importance given to this one case is absolutely disgusting and repulsive. I think they recieved 1 million in handouts? For what they are not a poor family. Nevermind all the tv time given. I feel sorry for all the poor families with missing kids who werent entertaining enough to recieve 1M.

While I am not agreeing with you GT on this matter I agree on some points.
