There are two claims about the media that I have heard IDI posters make over and over. They don't really make any sense to me. Here are they are:
1.) The media pushed the RDI theory because the IDI theory is boring and won't sell.
I believe both theories are very fascinating, but I would give the nod to IDI. An intruder murdering a little girl in the basement on Christmas while her parents and brother are sleeping is more sensational and less common than parents accidentally killing their child and then covering it up. Plus, the media loves to scare parents and the IDI theory would terrify people because if it can happen to the Ramseys, it can happen to them.
2.) The media slowed down JonBenet's pageant videos to make them look more provocative.
Is there any video showing the difference between a normal JBR pageant video and a doctored one? I could see the tabloids editing stuff, but would CNN, FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC doctor the videos? And the videos have aired so many times, on so many shows, so is every video edited or just some of them? Also, just the fact that JonBenet was 6 and was wearing makeup and a showgirl costume is enough to get people outraged, but IDI acts like if the media showed non-doctored videos, everyone would love pageants. I believe this 'theory' was put forth in DOI but I never read it, so I'm not sure.
What do you think???
