60 minutes had a story on this and asked why the media only covers certain stories. Never got a real answer, but they did have on the head of the network and asked him right out about the race issue. When they aired it there was a young black girl who was missing for the same period of time and she got maybe 10 mins worth of coverage. When they asked why, he stated that it was very hard for the news to cover all the missing cases. When they asked why cover one more then others, he admitted it was about ratings and from their polls pretty young blonde hair blue eyes prom queens are more likely to get the sympathy viewer then the unemployed on welfare with 10 kids from 10 dads minority.
