Sorry for the young lady and her family…not because of her internet popularity, but because her life was cut short in such a brutal way.

Hold on, the Woke, liberal, Democrat cheerleading media, who are pushing the story are complaining because they don't push the murderer POC young women and subsequent manhunt.

Hmm, seems a little hypocritical.

Here's another take, a white on white crime is fair game. If the biased and frankly racist media wanted to cover POC's murders all they need to do is go to Chicago. Oh, but then that's blacks killing blacks, nothing to see here.

If Gabby were black we would be treated to Al Sharpton and Biden himself talking about how she could have been their daughter, because narrative.

I do think the ongoing story/attraction is the manhunt. If he just committed suicide there with her, or turned himself in this would not be a story now.

Reid is another example of feeling it necessary to defend her decision not to cover the story rather than just walk on by. And really, complaining about the story being a story puts you in the mix, she is using the story for ratings.

Well written. Thank you. The complaint is true. Pretty young blonde murdered, boy friend on the run. Big news. Where this also draws interest is that its not a street murder in a big city. Same girl could be killed at Lenox Mall - it would make news for a few days and then on to the next story. But... Pretty young black girl killed in the same mall wouldn't likely stay on as long.

So there is truth in. But who controls the main stream media? That's right. Liberals. Who decides what stories to pursue? Liberals. So if your complaining at one of the NBC affiliates - go complain to your left wing colleagues. They are the one's making those decisions - it sure as heck isn't the public. They prove that every dog gone day.

As much tragedy as there is in the world today why is it that someone always has to throw race in the mix. So sad.

I’ve followed this story since it began because we were traveling by car on a similar road trip to Colorado around the same time and listened to daily reports on the car radio. But also and, more importantly, it’s a frightening story about a young woman who was lost and abandoned against the backdrop of the incredible beauty of those massive spaces that still exist in our country. BUT! How is it possible you knew nothing about it? I cannot imagine this didn’t creep into your well connected news life. And you got one major fact wrong… the Video blogger who notified the FBI and Gabby’s family was a smart, humble 30 something mom who makes her living travel blogging. Her diligence and response provided this major lead that led to the location of the body. She was interviewed on Fox and plenty of other channels and she was both humbled and heartbroken over it. She deserves great credit for bringing this young girl out of the woods and back to her family. There is humanity left in the world and it matters not one bit who Gabby was but the tragic end of her life. Joy Reid can pound sand.
