This is fucking disgraceful (Daily Mail)

Daily Mail is framing a teenage girl as being at the root of the Santa Barbara shootings, because she 'teased' the perpetrator (according to his 'manifesto'). They have posted pictures of her (with her face pixelated, some concession), in varying states of undress, of course (bikinis, short shorts, things that best fit the narrative).

I loathe them already, but this has shocked me. The poor girl. How can they get away with this?

She was named in his manifesto which is available all over the internet.

The DM online has a massive American readership - to the point that afaik, it uses American English than British (could be wrong about this bit though).

Awful stuff. Poor girl Sad

Perhaps very likely as it will be all over the internet.

Sad the DM properly hates women doesn't it?

I mean I know it hates everyone except for rich, white, males but it's still depressing.

That's beyond disgusting. Victim blaming at its finest. Most of us are rejected at some point, we get over it and move on.

I saw that, felt exactly the same. It's a shocking thing to do to a young girl. I hope she sues their asses.Sad
