This constant rehashing of the tragedy shows no respect to the families; it turns them into supporting players in CNN's ratings quest.

Author Stephen King has had enough of CNN’s round-the-clock coverage of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, and he’s not alone. Those two tweets have been favorited nearly 2,000 times and counting.
Mia Farrow very well might have inspired a new King novel.
If they find that plane CNN anchors heads will fall off

Is anyone else out there ready to move on?
“@StephenKing: Somebody please make CNN stop with the plane coverage. It's time to move on.” AMEN!!

@StephenKing How many books about a missing plane could you have written in the time CNN has spent covering it ?

@StephenKing We call it "tragedy porn." The term is also applicable to 90% of the @TLC lineup.

I think I just caught CNN covering something other than the missing plane. Don't forget the plane, CNN! The plane! #cnn #Flight370

@StephenKing I can't even stand to watch CNN anymore. What are they going to fill 22 hours a day with if they ever find that plane?

@StephenKing Their coverage will no doubt evolve into coverage about no longer having coverage to report.

But seriously @CNN, even @StephenKing is tired of the missing plane and he LOVES mysteries. Time to give it a rest.

@StephenKing BREAKING: Nothing new.

.@StephenKing For years, Stephen King has been haunting us. Who would have thought that it would take CNN to do it to him.
