Did anyone complain about Natalee Holloway's mother and her loyalty/connection with Greta Van Susteren? Is there really a problem with a family grieving and searching for their child, choosing one media outlet in particular they trust?
I DON'T think the Irwins are doing this for the money, nor do I think they would trade this special horror house life they live now for the sweet life they lived before, with their precious baby.
They just can't get a break. If the images of what they're doing garner sympathy, it's because their story INSPIRES SYMPATHY. It's not because they've created this false structure that causes people to feel fake sympathy, like that balloon boy thing. This is real, it's rough, those who feel empathy for them feel it righteously. FGS. All they want is their baby.
