Why isn't the media covering the Megan Williams case?

I have the same concerns that you have regarding the lack of


continuous coverage and follow-up that we have had on other


';national'; stories.





In my opinion ... we CLEARLY have a racist and bias system in this country (when it comes to the decisions) on what stories get massive coverage. And what stories get just a blurb or barely a mention.





Compare the coverage of stories like Lacy Peterson,


Natalee Holloway, and Elizabeth Smart ... to the coverage


of Megan Williams.





And the incessant OVERKILL on stories about Britney


Spears, Paris Hilton, and the paternity of Anna Nicole's baby!!!





We STILL have annual coverage on people like Marilyn


Monroe, Elvis Presley and Princess Diana.





But .... when Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter Yolanda King


died earlier this year .... Where were the retrospective on


her life and the legacy of her family???





I hate to pull out the ';race card'; .... But then .... THERE IT IS!!!





Look how few people even BOTHERED to respond to your


question!





Thanks for having the concern .... But it is going to take a


collective OUT CRY for things to EVEN began to change.Why isn't the media covering the Megan Williams case?
What do you mean the media is not covering it? You gave us a link to ABC news. They are one of the biggest media sources.





I goggled the victims name and there were more than 213,000 sites

What more do you want?
I heard about it on the news and they are being charged with all sorts of crimes. I haven't watched the news lately due to long hours at work but I did catch that story on the news.
