Research topic--Aruba boycott
If you recall, following the disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway the governor of Alabama called for a boycott of Aruba. Georgia's governor, as well as many voices from Fox News, joined in the call to boycott.
An interesting research topic would be to examine the impact--in the media, in the perception of Aruba held by potential visitors, and in travel statistics--of these events.
