HLN host Nancy Grace has something of a cult following of people who find unintentional dark comedy in her promotional tweets. For others, her Twitter feed is a bizarre, classless train wreck and they just can’t look away.
The shameless Grace delights in pimping out crime victims via ghoulish Twitter hashtags that look even freakier sans context. In 2012, Media Bistro noted that “there is no person anywhere in the Twitterverse who slaughters hashtags as fantastically as Nancy Grace.”
Just days after disgusted wrestling fans trended #CancelNancyGrace, she added #BoxesOfBabies to her repertoire of willfully tone-deaf alliterative hashtags.
