Missing White Women Syndrome - Media Bias

2008-10-15T18:46:59Z

When I first started working on YouTube videos, I was previously editing for Wikipedia.

One of the articles I was working on was called Missing White Women Syndrome. A focus on why the media has an obsession with missing white women. By which, the mainstream media cover women who are upper middle class, pretty, coming from sturdy backgrounds and did I have to mention that they are white.

Thanks for viewing and post comments at the bottom. Ratings are enabled.

Determining the standards of the American media is "undefined"! The public generally thinks the news media has a political bias. Whether its either CBS, NPR, Fox News, or Wall Street Journal, the news media has officially sunk standards to new lows. And one in particular is the controversial coverage of missing people and inappropriate relationships.

As many probably recognize is that the media has eventually a missing person case. It happens when a family member urges the mainstream media to cover a loved one.

In 2005, Natalie Holloway, an Alabama high school senior who traveled to Aruba became the lightening rod of what some in the media claim an "over saturation" of coverage. And the people are noticing the issue. The media barely covered two missing moms! A Spartanburg mom by the name of Tamika Huston and Philadelphia mom by the name of LaToyia Figueroa were two prime examples. A national outpouring of supporters urge the media to push for the missing moms! The media did cover it and unfortunately they were murdered during our outcry for media attention.

CNN's Anderson Cooper once said that if there's any hard evidence that might lead into breaking a news story, then CNN will cover it. Its sister network Headline News is one of the primary suspects of how the media covers missing people. Nancy Grace, a former prosecutor who hosts a talk show is primarily an example. Others who are in this profile include: Greta Van Susteren and Geraldo Rivera of Fox News. These pundits are the leading voices of how the media sunk to new lows in covering missing people.

Soft news stories are usually involved when the media avoids covering major hard news stories. Missing people stories that the producers of a program think are relevant get major air time. They need a back story, a pretty face and a villain: and there you have it! Your major story! Now for all the missing and murdered victims out there, I want to send my prayers and condolences to all the families and friends of that loved one.

In sense, I want you to know that I have no racial bias to the issue! I believe that each missing person is a victim. I believe the media is a tool in helping find a missing loved one. And in no way, I wish death on any missing one. I promise that I will do all I can to help, but I rarely rely on the media in my quest to find someone. I think it's essential not to jump to conclusions when covering a missing person story.

As a bonus I will also cover Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly gets the wrath of an angry "mom" (grandmother) on live television! Caylee Anthony's grandmother Cindy lays one into Kelly over her rush to judgment. And of course, Fox News is upset and exploiting it to the fullest. My prayers go to the mother Cassie and the grandmother Cindy Anthony.

To the family of Marilyn Renee "Niqui" McCown: It's been over seven years and Niqui McCown is still missing and not one mention other than local news media in my hometown of Dayton, Ohio. I need help in urging the media to cover her disappearance.

Before I end the comments I want to say thanks to Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia, Derrica Wilson of Missing and Black (http://blackandmissinginc.com), National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (http://missingkids.com) and the National Center for Missing Adults (http://theyaremissing.org). Thanks for the inspiration.

Take a stand against the corporate owned media and turn that television off. Don't let the media play on your emotions, your thoughts, your judgment, and your vote.

For those of you who've never seen really freaky porn; get a brown paper bag in case you get ill, shut the door and take a peek. Watch Hannity and Coulter be intimate and marvel at the most nauseating group hug you've ever seen, Uma Pemmaraju, Geraldo and Ollie North at the Sean Hannity Freedom From Dignity Concert on September 11th.

Nothing is more disgusting than seeing this vile, jingoistic public display of false patriotism and contrived concern from hateful right-wing television personalities, while the troops continue to die.

In the bizarre little right-wing world that's Fox News, they're always promoting the latest conservative buzzword, "sanctuary cities" in this case. Neil runs it up the flag pole but runs into problems when his right-wing guest gets clearly out of control.
