CNN’s Steubenville Coverage Matches 2011 ‘Onion’ Athlete-Rape Parody Video
This segment from CNN was so horrible, I can’t even believe it was allowed to air.

March 19, 2013 at 2:02 pmAgreed. Check out CNN’s Facebook wall though– they are getting a lot of flak for their terrible coverage. The fact that so many people are upset about this makes me feel a bit better. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/kia-makarechi/cnn-steubenville-coverage_b_2896948.html?utm_hp_ref=fb&src=sp&comm_ref=false

March 19, 2013 at 10:26 pmRidiculous & sad. :/ I used to think the Onion was fun years ago, but I also think they’re crossing a lot of lines where what they see as dark humor can actually trivialize something really profound. Anyhow, as for CNN, I really do hope they have the honor to make an apology, but it still feels like even that would seem hollow at this point. Just my 2cents.
