There is something fundamental missing about this case that the media is not reporting. Kidnapping is rare and never works to get money, but that was before Kash Patel's FBI.

Why? There's radicalization about mass/traditional media all over. Even here. But, it's especially virulent by those in fascist cults vulnerable to any truth. Targeting the family members of a known media personality, especially if you're in the area or have easy enough access. It's just low hanging fruit.

It may turn out it was completely random. It may just be an acquaintance or even a family member. It could be politically motivated. Right now I'm not sure who knows. It sucks that all abductions don't get this sort of coverage. There's been thousands abducted of the streets by roving fascist paramilitary gangs that are getting near zero coverage. But at the end of the day I would wish that she and all of them would be returned home safe soon. But we're gonna have to do way more than wish for most of them sadly.

Or they’re behind it because they don’t want the survivors interviews to be released

I find it difficult to believe that this kidnapping is the only one in progress and also sufficiently more important (than the other kidnappings) to justify the additional news coverage.

But, my heart does go out to her family and other loved ones.

No. I may have limited bandwidth for this. But my heart goes out to her and her family.. It's something no one would want to imagine happening. Even if plenty others often go missing with a fraction of the visibility this case of getting.

Not sure why this is worth so much substantial resource dedication than every other kidnapping/human trafficing incident.

Yeah, not to sound crass. Like I wish the best of luck in a safe return and all. But this is not something that the news should be fixating on and constantly spamming.

There is way bigger shit going on right now.

I don't care at all but it's been at the top of Google News headlines for weeks. I saw a story today with the headline that the police chief said someone somewhere knows the perpetrator. A completely worthless statement making headline news because the victim is white and related to someone on TV.

Does anyone else just like…not care about this?

If you see how common kidnapping for ransom is in some other countries, and that now it is appearing in a nation where it was rare before, that should be concerning to most.

If the kidnappers are not found from this one, I would expect other copycats to start the same practice.
