From AOL UK News:



I'm still looking for a contact email / feedback form / whatever for AOL News. (Also curious about journalism rules in the UK.) Background to the nightmare is available from Media Watch.

The way AOL's headline puts it, you'd think the child was the criminal, not the rapist! She "confesses" and "admits" to being sexually assaulted? Grrr.

It can also be taken like interrogation, pressure, duress. Those are words that are generally linked to the criminal element, yes, but it makes you question wtf a fourteen-year-old girl was doing live on radio being questioned about her sexual past by a couple of shock jocks.
