They\'re both separate examples, though. There\'s more to contrast than to compare. The River Song example was a fixed point in time, while the Hungry Earth/Cold Blood was a malleable point. However well intentioned, the mother doomed the peace talks when she killed the prisoner. River\'s story is going backwards. We\'re seeing her character development devolve. River\'s in a Stable Time Loop with The Doctor. When Amy met her in the Angel two-parter, she was working for a pardon. We didn\'t know why. She had to be sent to prison to complete her part of the time loop and warn the Doctor about the Pandorica Box and make sure the Doctor learns what he\'s supposed to do. She\'s an anti-hero, but she\'s not a designated hero.
