"Sucks To Be You", if you do not have blonde hair or blue eyes! [View All]

Excuse me if I am missing something, but I have not seen much on TV news concerning the missing of two Milwaukee children. Now, if it were two little white girls with blonde hair and blue eyes, would there have been more media coverage?

Again, I may be wrong! I may have missed it for one reason or another. Usually when I get home from work, which is around 5PM, I tune in to the local, then the national news. Since these children have turned up missing, I have heard little 15 sec. stories on it, then they move on.

Please let me know if I am overreacting.

Thank you

Police said Sunday the search for two boys who disappeared a week ago was turned into a criminal investigation.

Milwaukee police spokeswoman Anne E. Schwartz wouldn't reveal what prompted them to treat the case differently, saying it would compromise the investigation.

The change did not come because of one detail, she said, but an "amassing of information" through police canvassing the neighborhood, tips and leads.
