Trey Gowdy makes a very valid point

   As I have said, Trey Gowdy is the "real deal"; and being a very honorable man, I'm guessing is what made him leave congress.

  In this 6+ minute video, he points out, and rightly so...The disparity of attention that missing persons get by
  the media.  He points out that such attention brings volunteers and funds rolling into help inthe search and family recovery.

  https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/gowdy-shouldn-t-all-missing-persons-be-treated-equally/vi-AAPDOiN

    Big media storyies about Gabby Petito and Natalie Holloway, for instance.  That is good, and sure helps in the process.

     But how about the decent, upstanding teens or college students who come up missing, and are not pretty, blondes with blue eyes.  Their families love and miss them too !

    Gowdy IMO is not blaming the public so much as the media, and what brings sensation. 

   ..come to think of it..missing men don't get that much publicity either! 

Does it seem like there is a "formula" for sensational news stories..and any others are out of luck ?

Very good point.
Many children here in Georgia go missing and it's usually a family member that takes them.
But, many are believed to have been taken by sex traffickers.

Most of the amber alerts here are a mother or father to the children. It’s hard to get excited when ya get no details on the alert and it’s usually a custody problem between parents.

Yes Trey does have a very valid point. I have a captain friend who works at a local prison who has a lot of these abducters incarcerated in it. He said they have one who abducted her, killed her and then cut her up.   
And was carrying her remains around in a large suitcase.  We also need to factor in the perv content.

  I guess I didn't consider it too seriously...but just think back on the greatly publicized "missing person" cases.

  How many were black?  how many were men?  How many were fat and/or ugly ?

  I think Trey had a very valid point... media going for sensationalism !/color]
