In an article she claimed that she didnt expect it to gain national attention - but with the fact that she is pretty and wealthy, the media jumped all over it .

Yesterday, I was watching John Walsh from AMW on CNN, and he was talking about why the media picks the abduction/missing person cases that it does (which was because of looks, race and wealth) because according to the FBI's website, there are currently over 22,000 missing women over 18 (and that's just the one's that are reported).

Its sad that there are more serious cases out there, and the media hopped all over this one when in fact, she was hitching a hreyhound to New Mexico.
