The newly passed Violence against Women Act.

Guess what everyone, it's a joke to the media.

Who is the victim here, the poor boys, they had such promising futures. Oh sorry there was a little incident that happened, they just happened to rape a comatose woman, a child really. She was sixteen! Her name was put out by none other than fox news! So much for protecting a minor.

So tell me, who is the victim here. Is the media telling us that it is the boys, who were unable to control their basic instincts? Seems to be. The girl, a slut, she drank to much. She deserved it. One observer said that she was almost dead and so raped.

CNN

CNN's coverage of the Steubenville, Ohio, rape verdict involving a pair of high-school football players is being criticized for its focus on the rapists rather than the 16-year-old victim.

"I've never experienced anything like it," CNN correspondent Poppy Harlow said live outside the juvenile court in Steubenville. "It was incredibly emotional—incredibly difficult even for an outsider like me to watch what happened as these two young men that had such promising futures, star football players, very good students, literally watched as they believe their life fell apart."

Harlow continued:


One of the young men, Ma'lik Richmond, when that sentence came down, he collapsed. He collapsed in the arms of his attorney, Walter Madison. He said to me, "My life is over. No one is going to want me now." Very serious crime here. Both found guilty of raping this 16-year-old girl at a series of parties back in August, alcohol-fueled parties. Alcohol is a huge part in this.

Both Richmond and Trent Mays, the other defendant, stood up and apologized to the victim and her family. Harlow described the scene to Candy Crowley.

"I was sitting about three feet from Ma'lik when he gave that statement. It was very difficult to watch," Harlow said. "This was an incredibly emotional day. These two juveniles being carried out and they will be committed today, Candy."Read more: http://www.schnittshow.com/go/news/sections/newsarticle.html?feed=104668&article=11078135#ixzz2NxZBWMAq

What about the Rape victim, where is you compassion for her? How is her life going to be affected by this. Do you care CNN. She was the victim here.

Stop promoting Violence Against Women!

1. CNN should be ashamed of this reporting but its what

happens when a network hires only dumb pretty faces.
Those, who interpret the world for us and inform us of important daily news are just pretty people, people who don't have to play by the rules and who have never suffered any hardship. They view others, who challenge the system that supports them so well, as losers.
They, no doubt, think the young victim should have used the rape to further her own interests (through blackmail presumably), gaining something personally rather than expecting systemic changes.
They view all of their own compromises as heroic and any effort for the common good as foolish and wasteful.
"Take one for the team" if you want to get ahead.

3. demographic outreach program

It seems that CNN is really trying to get those disaffected angry misogynist viewers that are quiting fox "news" and looking for another 24 hr fear-for-profit factory disguised as the news.
