CNN: Apologize on air for Steubenville Coverage

Let’s hold media outlets accountable for how they cover domestic and sexual violence. Join us in signing this petition and ask CNN to apologize for their coverage of the Steubenville rape trial.

“That CNN decided to paint the tears of the convicted Steubenville rapists in a sympathetic light and say how their lives were ruined — while completely ignoring the fact that the rape victim’s life is the one whose life was ruined by these rapists’ actions — is disgusting and helps perpetuate a shameful culture in which young people never understand the concept of consent and in which rape victims are blamed and ostracized. Changing that culture must be done brick by brick, and it can start by heaping public shame on this major cable news network and forcing them to admit that they are wrong. Publicly.”
