This girl was possibly raped and killed.

Parody of how graphic the media turns an event just to get ratings on a story.

Interesting how the media will spin....EVERYTHING!!!

 

[06BUSA]

WTF. Is that for real? That has got to be a joke. Not funny, pretty messed up. If real those people should be looking for work.

I don't think it is real, it if from TheOnion.com which usualy takes current events and spinns it.

Anything from the onion is a farce.

Amusing...that's pretty much how the media feeds the need for the horrific...

 

[FastBusa]

That was sick!

 

[Luvanicebum]

I am totally and irreversably horrified. Quite possibly mentally damaged for the rest of my life. Taunted by the images of poor Meghans possible grizzly sodomized, dismembered corpse bobbing in a pond.

I might have to maybe seek some grief councilling......maybe.
I'll know by 11pm. maybe.
Untill then, I'm at least extremely depressed.

 

[slimshady]

That cant be real. If it is those people (media) need to find other employment.

 

[BlueHaya]

...it's fake and totally tasteless. This is not a topic to make joke with.

 

[stlbusarider]

not cool

 

[WWJD]

yeah the topic is touchy but you guys are missing the point. it's an AWESOME SLAM on media, and how things are blatantly twisted for ratings. I thought it was hilarious and really well done!

It might have been best served if they broke in with live footage of her coming home to her parents house and the news guys asking how many times she was raped, was she scared, was she currently cut and bleeding from anywhere, did she know who the attempted homocide perp was.... and have her looking bewildered going, "What? I stopped off to pick up a soda... so what?"

stupid news media.

Quite a bit of The Onion could be very offensive to folks, but the stabbing hypocritical sarcasm is top drawer! http://www.theonion.com/content/index

In the immortal words of Don Henley-

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry

Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em all around

We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
Its interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry

You dont really need to find out whats going on
You dont really want to know just how far its gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down

Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre stiff
Kick em all around

Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry

We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When its said and done we havent told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

 

[Luvanicebum]

OK.....
Dee Dee Dee.....
who didn't get it?
all those people that never smoked a joint didn't get it. am I right...
