I Heart Bob Costas
Not only is Costas a superior interviewer, he's got more integrity than just about everybody on national television news combined.
Costas is taking a turn in Larry King's seat on CNN (what a relief, King is boring, obvious and a complete beating.)
I was watching NBC or ABC or some other shitty morning national news show yesterday and they were into day two of the NBC interview stumbled on with the Dutch dude who's under arrest in connection with Natalee Holloway's disappearance. The sum of the story is that the court won't let the interview be shown. Big damn deal. All the guy said was "I'm doing fine here in jail" according to NBC. What a fucking news flash. But because it's got a connection to the sad dissappearance of very pretty young girl, everything is big news. It's what call the pretty girl disappearance sweepstakes --- if you're pretty it's news. If your average, maybe you'll land on a milk carton. Anyway, as part of the ongoing coverage of Natalee, one of the shows mentioned that Costas refused to do a show on Natalee Holloway. You know why? Because it's NOT NEWS and Costas has the balls to say so. Who cares if the lame interview you got isn't allowed on television? Thank you Bob Costas. I hope you start a trend.

Who? Had to Google her; didn't make the news here in Aussie-land.
She just looks regular to me -- neither pretty nor homely. Just like a regular gal.
Maybe race, not attractiveness, is the decider?

Be thankful you live in Australier. Apparantly, it's one of the few places on this planet that is not deluged with Natalee Holloway coverage.
Think of it this way: If Neil Finn when missing in New Zealand, it wouldn't get as much coverage in your part of the world as Holloway has recieved in the United States.
