WHY IS IT THAT CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST PRETTY WHITE WOMEN ARE WORTHY OF NATIONAL NEWS COVERAGE?


[+] serious ballot by FiddleFaddleOnLSD
created Sat Apr 30, 05
While this doesn't happen in all cases, it seems to me that crimes committed against pretty white women get national news coverage, but crimes committed against others do not. National news coverage happens for Laci Peterson, Lori Hacking and Jennifer Wilbanks. There a hundreds of murders, disappearences of others but they never get national coverage even though the murder or crime may be more barbaric. Why?

Pretty white women victims get more ratings 18

COMMENTS:
Probably because the population of America is some 70 percent White, and it is perhaps more interesting to this majority to hear about harm to their group than others. Or maybe it's as simple as de-facto racism. Or both. Or neither.

Thanks for the stimulation.

I think it's cause they're pretty not cause they're white.

I guess ugly people's lives aren't worth as much.

I could launch into an entire, nine-hour diatribe on this subject. Unfortunately, I've got people over my shoulder waiting to use the Machine, so I'll have to get back to it in a year or three.

It's this political correct manifesto that the media is often forced to abide by. I'm not sure if you can call it racism but rather the first choice up there.

Because they're pretty.

FiddleFaddleOnLSD, I believe you asked for a reason and I provided it. Surely you're not implying I hold the belief that "ugly" people's lives are of a lesser value.

No. Just a general comment I was making on the situation. Not directed at you at all.
by FiddleFaddleOnLSD on Mon May 02, 05 5:12pm [+]

It was directed at the news media.

It is not just that they are white and pretty, it is that they are ONLY white and pretty.

If an alien landed and watched, listened to, or read the media they would try to nab themselves a pretty white girl.

Aren't there any pretty black, Asian, Indian whatever women ever going missing? If so that means it kind of sucks to be a pretty white woman. If not that means that there should be an examination of why WE NEVER HEAR OF NON-WHITE PRETTY WOMEN GOING MISSING.
