Tabloid News
Although I feel compassion for her parents and sympathy for her, I am sick and tired of this obsession over Chandra Levy’s disappearance. Surely there are more deserving missing people to concentrate on than a 24-year-old woman who had an affair with a powerful middle-aged married man.
This story encompasses all that is sordid and sick in our society: The TV news people dragging this story out and making it front-page news; a Bible-thumping adulterer; an inept police force bowing to a powerful figure; and the unfortunate Chandra herself.
