Even the number of media who cover the story are thinning.
Saturday, KTXS was one of only three media outlets to attend the press briefing, a drastic change from the days just following Hailey's disappearance.

And here's why:
Many people who are not close to the case seem to be confused because there are so many conflicting accounts of what actually happened. After watching many of the interviews Im beginning to see why myself. I have yet to see an entire interview aired or printed. They are cut or pasted, edited for time and space, and often Im not quoted in correct context. My words are sometimes picked apart and twisted around in such a way that I dont even recognize them.

If you want to get your missing little girl's face in the media, you don't vilify the people and organizations that do that for her.
You particularly don't say something as silly as that all your interviews have been cut, pasted, edited, and not quoted in context, when you've done a large number of LIVE interviews, most on nationwide television in prime time, as Billie has, because everybody knows that live interviews are not cut, pasted, edited, or quotes pulled out of context. They are LIVE. There is no opportunity to do any of that - at all.
You also don't say that your interviews have all been cut, pasted, edited, and not quoted in context, when you've done a large number of interviews, as Billie has, where a number of the RAW videos of those interviews are available to the entire world on the internet. Most people know that RAW means UNedited, UNcut, UNpasted, with no opportunity to pull quotes out of context.
Last night I was thinking about how highly manipulative Billie is, and how she has apparently been at it for a long time, and I believe she is very much used to 'winning' in the control games she plays.
And I was thinking how that is the mindset she's approached and taken on the massive machine that is the combined power of the media and the internet when a child goes missing.
She thought the game would be same as that she is used to. She's finding out it's not.
This is my personal opinion.
