There was only one time I had the misfortune to see this monster. During the MJ trial when somehow she already had all the evidence to essentially convict MJ even before ANY witness opened his/her mouth. Yeah right. Evidence like MJ at one point was asking for vaseline while a young boy was in his bedroom.
And I thought no way she could have done this in a civilized country like Norway or the Netherlands. But in America you can say anything slander anyone and all in the name of the First Amendment.

I think it's safe to say that I 'loathe' this women. She is pure, utter, repulsive garbage and indicative to the American masses mindset.
We need help.

Nancy Grace is a media whore who exploits the victims of crime to further her own celebrity.
She is a rude, obnoxious, and ugly screaming banshee who makes a living off the tragedy of others. There is nothing redeeming about her broadcasts, it is pure exploitation and sensationalism.
She is a metaphor for everything wrong with mass media today. Her faux patriotism and the fact that she pimps out her own kids for ratings only confirms the suspicion that this woman is a sociopath.
My only question, why isn't she on FOX?

Holy crap!
Remind me to never get on your nerves. What a scathing put down!
I disagree though, and I find important news on Nancy Grace's show, which I would NEVER find in the New York Slimes.
At least Fox News puts on other opinions like those of that Black professor who purposely talks very fast to make us think that he's so smart that he can't keep up with his rapid thinking, and other Limousine Liberal Leftists.
Try finding that on CNN or HLN. They made sure to kick Glenn Beck off because they do not want other opinions, but Fox News does and proves it.
I hate to quote anything the European Times says (I mean the N.Y. Times), but Glen Beck has been on the N.Y. Times' best seller list for quite a while and today he is number one. Perhaps people like what he has to say, even though he's a conservative.
BTW,I am a conservative. - 2 years ago

Good commentary pointing out her crassness.
However, its no crime to be self-centered. Is it?
I mean, for me, it's not.

That is why like her. A true seeker is able to separate the content from the announcer.
Therefore, i am greatly appreciative that every single time she appears, she shows the picture of a fallen American fighter, and she explains who was left behind in that family, thus making it a personal loss to all who have the ability to empathize. She has shown thousands of heroes instead of them just being numbers.
Also, there are no dead babies and infants who can speak up for themselves, and Nancy Grace does that for them; she doesn't just make a death announcement, she follows it up, night after night, until the murderer is caught.
This man who reads the anti Nancy Grace script, is an opportunist, who aimed to be a put down gossiper, and a wannabe bully, but didn't quite make either dubious goal. Perhaps he should see if it is possible to have a show where he does only positive portrayals. - 2 years ago

The point of the show is to be critical in a humor kind of way. If it were positive and feel good it would not be this show....it would be something else. It's a good ribbing. It's not a total, brutal throw down. I think it's best to get upset over things that are terrible like people being overly critical of Palin no matter what she does.

I am amused by this.
I, however, do not find her annoying at all. Most of my family cannot stand her.
But at least she appreciates the death of soldiers and fights for children who other's forget. She's a loud person, she is obnoxious, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know what she's talking about....including the law.
Yes...NO?

I think Nancy Grace is a great person. The guy who opens the above video by saying, "The latest in white-upper-middle-class-homocide," is a shock journalist who tries to get your attention with a lying phrase! What utter BS! Much of her show deals with every class and every color. What a lie he leads off with!
Nancy Grace is a good person and she stands up for all those murdered children who of course have no one to else who will speak up for them. The media have no time for little kids who are killed by mean, ugly, rotten adults. The media is too busy sensationalizing petty gossip stories like, "Ooooh, Joe Bo was arrested for DWI! Oh my God! Who was with him? Will he be in court tomorrow?" That's what the guy up on top loves.
The poor kids who are buried alive and are chopped up, is what the guy in the above video calls "unimportant." Wow! Would he thank Nancy Grace if he needed to get out information about someone in his family!!!
This "host" of the video clip who is trying to put her down, needs to grow up and understand that he will never find any story about abused, tortured, murdered children in The New York Slimes. The European Times, woops, I mean The New York Times is interested in true exploitation of children. They love to run stories about poor children so they can pick up a Pulitzer Prize, but not so that children will be treated better.
Nancy Grace does want children to be more protected and respected. The criminal elements who greatly dislike having their sins brodcasted on TV, are angered by her constant attacks against criminals. They are the ones who call her show's topics "gossip" while in reality, they are the ones who wallow in gossip about minor rock star and actress sightings.
On Nancy, on! Keep fighting for the children. Don't let the immature attention getter in that video distress you.

I do not agree with what he is stating, but his teasing is far more kind than many people on TV mocking others. He's also funny.

Coner,
Thanks so much for slamming this rude idiot. It was hysterical and she deserves so much more. Maybe you could make it a weekly thing.
By the way, has Nancy ever broadcast a story about the murder of a non-white person? Maybe she thinks those are okay.

Too bad her viewers don't realize they, too, are "victims"......wtf is the deal with the "goodnight friend"?
Is she afraid these scripture quoting, buffet loving, ignorant gossipmongers won't return the next night to watch this trainwreck on this trainwreck of a show?

She'd be the female equivalent of Bill O the clown O'Reilly if he didn't already fill that role on his own. She'll certainly do if he ever moves on.

I was wondering who this lady was. She seems to be the only television personality on HLN, and the story always seems to be the same.
and "kjokonoswazzup," infomania is a satirical show, and as such they get a lot of freedom before anything becomes considered slander.

SupaDawg:
Point taken. Notice that I did say "elements of" :).
Applying ethics to ones profession is ultimately a personal judgment call. I don't know how it works in the film industry. I do know that taking someone else's material out of context, can be an ethical matter. Anyone can be made to look like a stupid bitch when you put all their stupid bitchy moments back-to-back. Power is given to the editor who is faced with ethical choices. Nancy Grace is not just another Hollywood Starlett like Paris Hilton.
The point of Nancy's show is to stick to a topic until there is justice for the victim. That's why when you tune in, much will look the same. "Breaking News and New Breaking News" etc. are understood by the people who are following a particular case. New evidence is always emerging. Legal concepts need to be applied to some degree if you're going to watch the show and then actually develop a personal critique. Afterall, satirical humour IS intelligent humour. Otherwise what we've got is "Beavis and Butthead".
The OJ Simpson trial is another reason why a show like this is a GOOD thing. Since I was in high school during this trial, I can make the comparison between real time then and now. It certainly doesn't hurt to have a gal like Nancy ready to bust some balls. I would bet my cat's life on it that OJ would have gone to prison when he should have, b/c Nancy would've been all up in his buisness. When you deal with pathological liars, you have to learn the art of repeating and returning to the main point, again and again. Over and over. Even if it annoys those who aren't pathological liars (you & me). Because these kind of people are masters at playing mind games and if they're rich, they can put together an entire team of manipulative, deceitful liars and end up going free even though they brutally murdered two innocent people.
Okay, that's all. Party on. I stated my case.

Usually I think current uses humor tastefully, but this time, I think it/you/whomever was behind this piece, failed. Infact, it has elements of slander:
1. Law Oral communication of false statements injurious to a person's reputation.
2. A false and malicious statement or report about someone.A. Who takes Nancy seriously? Well, for one, the little kids who can't speak for themselves because they are now dead. Example: Caylee Anthony. Her murderous mommy was arrested, thanks to Nancy, who kept the story in the media on behalf of little Caylee.
B. As for Nancy's fiesty personality - do you expect her to bring humor to a job that requires discussing how a little kid was brutally murdered? You forgot to mention that Nancy is a victim's right advocate - mostly for missing/murdered children. And of course, who wouldn't have a hard day now and then, considering these circumstances?
C. Ball-kicking Nancy - your report was a little off base because 9 times out of 10, she is bitchy to the people who come on her show and defend adults that rape kids before murdering them.
D. It wasn't explained that most of Nancy's reporting is in regards to the Amber-Alert children. This means the children were just reported missing and Nancy understands that most children who aren't found within 24 to 48 hours, typically end up dead at the hands of the original murder suspect. So, perhaps you can find it in your heart to forgive Nancy for being in such a "rush"?
E. Nancy is amazed by her own children, because of what she had to go through in life, that led up to her miraculous 40-something twin pregnancy. Her fiance was murdered in 1979, she never married, deciding to become a prosecutor instead b/c of her experience. Finally, in her 40's, she fell in love again and got married, etc. So, let the woman brag about her babies. She certainly earned it.
I'm thinking you must have studied ethics at some point during college? I trust you can learn when you're crossing the line for the sake of being "funny".
PS. On almost every show, she takes the time to remember a soldier/marine that died in Iraq. Mentions their name, shows their picture, tells a little bit about their background. Most people forget these great men and women. But not Nancy.
