From the "saw it coming miles away department" -- what network could be better suited to dramatizing the story of the mysterious disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway from the island of Aruba at the end of May, 2005? Lifetime, the women's cable channel, of course. [WSB Atlanta]
With the new disappearance of a blonde, young, white girl in a former Dutch colony, the Dutch media is drawing comparisons between this case of Marlies van der Kouwe and Natalee Holloway's. Beth Twitty has tried to make contact with Marlies's parents, but to no avail. I'm blogging about how America's culture promotes the hyperreal, something Dutch culture isn't so receptive to.
Basically, the made-for-tv movie is just another case in point. The American media continues to feed on the bloated, rotting corpse that is Natalee Hollway.

That everything was kept hush,hush.If the Feds couuldn't find any leads they probably bought off. It's beenknow to happen. But i'm truly sorry for your lost.
