People who thrive on bad news; who always want to be "in on the action" when there is a disaster/tragedy; who try to find any personal connection, no matter how remote, to the current tragedy; and who make things sound more serious/emotional/melodramatic than they really are -- as a way of drawing attention to themselves more than anything else. Similar to, but more specific than a drama queen. A sympathy whore gravitates towards an event, be it a plane crash, flood, serious illness or the death of someone else. Different from a drama ho.
