Whenever I find Grace's show flipping through the channels I stop and watch a little. She entertains me, but for about three minutes; I can't take more than that, or I start experiencing dizziness.
Ah, the acrid tang of manufactured outrage on cable news. One of the many reasons I'm glad I ditched cable. That and the lack of technology that will allow me to choke people through the TV.
I actually used to like Nancy Grace a long time ago when I first saw her on Court TV. I was a Court TV addict many years ago. Now, I can barely tolerate her. I never watch her show. She's a rabid dog. She's ridiculous.
I do agree with Nancy on the fact that Caylee is dead and her mother killed her. It's obvious. I also think Trenton Duckett's mother killed him. Nancy interviewed the mother and the mother proceeded to kill herself.
The coverage of this Caylee Anthony case is out of control. You can imagine I see it every day, if I so choose, because our local news carries it. It's the leading story every night and day. The stations tout, "Tonight, a WESH exclusive...New developments on the Caylee Anthony case!" Gag.
Also gag to this commentary on the Orlando Sentinel. What he really should say is, "What makes the white girl so special?"
PS I generally find TV soothing, so I'm often on CNN, Headline News (which is also CNN), and MSNBC. It's horrible when MSNBC is doing some inside Folsom prison-type story, CNN has Lou Dobbs or Glenn Beck, and Headline News has Nancy Grace.
