Was just about to sing some hallelujahs when the penny dropped. <br /><br />I look forward to the day when this really is how reporting of such events will read.Annanihttp://ishtarshalfsister.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-9796171745316437442012-05-04T11:14:18.475+12:002012-05-04T11:14:18.475+12:00This is brilliant.This is brilliant.antheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977317113072185299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-7837017600285428332012-05-04T09:41:03.961+12:002012-05-04T09:41:03.961+12:00Thank you for this.

But that doesn't mean the media could not get similar advice from specialist sexual violence prevention people. Because it's not really rocket science that if a community mobilises around stranger rapes they are likely to become much more difficult to perpetrate.<br /><br />I did write something back in 2008 when I was a student journo about early reporting of the Tony Veitch case which my tutor promoted to real journos though - a bit of a polemic about the media and violence against women. It's http://www.newswire.co.nz/2008/07/veitch-revolving-door/ for those interested :-)LudditeJournohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13154447284268192467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-10337508437924590722012-05-03T23:35:11.905+12:002012-05-03T23:35:11.905+12:00I always enjoy your writing but this is a particul...I always enjoy your writing but this is a particularly awesome re-framing of something so common, that reading this feels like a breath of fresh air (under nasty circumstances).<br /><br />HekieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-78065196299905672432012-05-03T23:26:24.091+12:002012-05-03T23:26:24.091+12:00This is awesome.

I had got in a debate with someone about how crappy the original article was, and being able to show them this alternative is great.
