Same here.
I often have News24 or Sky News on in the background if I'm not watching something specific, but haven't done so much recently, 'cos quite frankly I'm bored of the constant OTT media coverage (if that makes me sound like a miserable uncaring ass then so be it - why should I care more for her than any other? What makes this particular case so special? What about all the others?). It seems that nothing else is being reported.
Reminds me of when Diana died, all the OTT media frenzy & obsessive grief, pushing all other stories out of the news, all the people getting so worked up & emotional about someone they had never met & they had nothing to do with.

It appears to be the most likely thing, based upon the information available to the public so far.
Doesn't seem that she was taken for ransom, & the only other "reasons" she would have been taken are not ones which in any way could lead to a happy outcome.
As it has been over a fortnight now I think that it is surely most likely that Madeleine is dead already rather than safe & well as hoped by all, or is being kept alive for reasons which could be considered worse than death
