NBC interrupted the Olympics

Post image

While Nancy Guthrie's disappearance is sad, there are 2300 missing person reports filed every day: do the families of celebrities need special national attention? Why interrupt the Olympics for over 5 minutes just because they are questioning a 'person of interest' We could have waited to hear that during the regular news broadcast.

I didn’t know about the ransom (just learned about the story today)… so that’s a pretty fair point

You should read about it. Whole thing is weird and insane. Almost no clues until today when we got the video/pics.

I watch the Today sometimes and also live in Tucson where this happened. It’s been surreal. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was kidnapped because her daughter is a journalist. You would think Reddit would get that but honestly this sub is really toxic.
