My cousin Yvonne was “Queen for a Day”. She was married, 8 months pregnant, asking for a bicycle for her brother so he could deliver newspapers. Also a headstone for their mother’s grave. My Aunt had just passed away. Yvonne did get home appliances plus the bicycle and headstone. It was like a HUGE deal in our family. I can see the big picture now. Exploiting a family tragedy for profit.
I am glad they were able to help your family. I’m sure you are not the only one. And yeah, exploiting tragedy for ratings, it’s just yucky. But also good and with the bad? I’m conflicted about it.
