MSNBC's Joy Reid dismisses focus on Gabby Petito case as 'missing White woman syndrome'

 

 Talking like that... makes people NOT care about people making STUPID comments like YOU!!!

 How many would look for you after making such a nasty comment like that? 

Rude witch! These people lost their daughter... how dare you, how freaking dare you!

African Americans are made to look bad by jerks like above. Don't judge them all like her, I'm sure they are cringing reading those words. That poor family is grieving and this witch says something so ridiculous and unkind. What if this was YOUR family grieving?

MSNBC's Joy Reid dismisses focus on Gabby Petito case as 'missing White woman syndrome'

 'Why not the same media attention when people of color go missing?' Reid asked

"Well, the answer actually has a name: Missing White woman syndrome. The term coined by the late and great Gwen Iffil to describe the media and public fascination with missing White women like Laci Peterson or Natalee Holloway, while ignoring cases involving missing people of color," she added, referencing two well-known cases of missing women.

MSNBC has extensively covered the case and its website Monday morning prominently featured an opinion piece on the missing woman.

Reid spent the remainder of the segment discussing multiple instances of missing Black and Native American individuals she claimed to have never heard about in the same way as the Petito case.

She also cited statistics from the Black and Missing Foundation that suggested the disparity in media coverage between missing White women and non-White women was attributed to missing minorities often being classified as runaways, minority adults being labeled as associated with crime, and that minorities are dismissed because it's believed they live most of their lives with poverty and crime as a regular part of their lives. 

Reid ended the segment by suggesting that missing women of color weren't noticed as much because they didn't look like the daughters or granddaughters of newsroom executives, alluding to one of her guest's earlier claims on the show that stories on missing non-White women weren't sensational enough for the White, middle-aged males leading newsrooms.
