It irks me too. Especially this part.....

Duluth Mayor Shirley Fanning Lasseter (search), whose city spent nearly $43,000 to search for her, also expressed disapproval.



I hope she has to pay everyone who was out searching for her, say 10-12 bucks per hour each. For her to profit from this says a lot about her ethics IMHO.

Gawd this was right in my backyard, too (Duluth is next town over from Suwanee). Now who really deserves a media deal is Ashley Smith, also from Duluth, who talked courthouse killer Brian Nichols into turning himself in.

I saw in the news yesterday that she has a book deal, too. The difference between her and the runaway nutjob, is that Ashley Smith richly deserves whatever good she can get out of her situation. What a ballsey, coolheaded, faithful woman.

Good for her! Yes, she does deserve it.

LIke rubberneckers watching a train wreck - then wanting a videotape to see it over and over.

I saw a news report that the Bride will get a cool half-million. By the time production is done and it's sold to a network, they'll make more than twice that from advertising. HIgh margin business...

Bypass the problem. Don't take a CVR with you.

Bypass the problem. Don't take a CVR with you.

...and don't say "Hey y'all watch this!"
