I totally agree with this. Most people I talk to at work are now voicing opions such as "why is Maddie so special", "havent the media got anything else to report about", "parents are milking it"
I know some of it seems harsh but at the end of the day the Maddie "overload" in the media is now making people fed up of the whole thing. I think the question is where do you draw the line in all the coverage/prmoting awareness.
I know if I was a parent of an abducted child, I'd want to do everything possible in getting her back, but I think we're leading to a situation where people reading the papers, faced with a Maddie related story on the front, will just turn the page over pretty quickly....
