introduction
If you don't know who Nancy Grace is by now, you must have been in a coma for the past few years. Nancy Grace hosts Headline News' trashiest program, "Nancy Grace", on Headline Prime. When it comes to being accurate, Nancy Grace evidently believes she knows all, and when she speaks, her guests must immediately be silent on the topic. A cable TV talk-show host and former prosecutor, she may be too familiar with dismissing people, and seems to have forgotten how to do research to get at the truth of an issue. Her actions as a prosecutor were, at times, less than upright, according to a federal appeals panel. She can be a raging b!tch with her guests and interrupts constantly with the 'Woah woah woah! Back the blah truck up a moment! It is frightening to me that a NATIONALLY telecast "news" program could be so misinformed and unfactual. Absolutely the epitome of yellow journalism at it's best! Nancy Grace's victims now extend beyond her viewers. Now her guests are suicidally inclined too. Hours after being interviewed by nancy, a distraught woman whose son was missing committed suicide. There is a serious difference between investigative reporting and the interrogation she put that woman through. The family of Melissa Duckett, who killed herself the day after being "aggressively questioned" (to put it politely) by Nancy Grace on her cable tv show has sued her. To refer to Nancy Grace as a "journalist" is to denigrate the profession. Her questioning of guests is sensational and irresponsible. While many of her viewers are able to look beyond her Southern drawl, tendancy to nag, and obsession with sex crimes against children, during an interview with Elizabeth Smart, Grace's guest was under serious fire. Elizabeth Smart appeared on the show to discuss her role in supporting a national sex offender registry bill, which (no thanks to Grace) has since passed through congress. And what does Nancy Grace ask her about? How did she see through her burkha? Basically Elizabeth laughs in her face, tells her to shut the fuck up, and refuses to go on discussing the details of her kidnapping. It surprises me that Ms Grace can still find any guests willing to subject themselves to her particular brand of absolute abuse.
While there are a plethora of websites advocating the firing of Nancy Grace (firenancygrace...)
,
if CNN were to fire Nancy Grace, some other sleaze merchant would have her back under contract and in syndication within minutes.
I believe *the character* "Nancy Grace" must die. Legal processes must be brought to bear which prevent Nancy Grace from ever being in a position to profit from or cause death or harm to another living soul, guilty, innocent, or otherwise, ever again. Just as OJ may not profit from his victims, neither should Nancy Grace be permitted to profit from the suffering of her victims or their families. Do a search for "nancy grace must die" and you'll see Im not the only one whos saying it ;) Although some others probably mean it quite literally!
Elizabeth Smart shuts the troll down.
Grace is shut down big time!
