Not so sure about that anymore. Public trust in the media is at rock bottom. "The survey, done in partnership with Reuters/Ipsos, interviewed 4,214 adults and found that the media is last on a list of all of Washington’s institutions that the public has confidence in, even under Congress." https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/trust-in-media-hits-bottom-60-percent-say-sources-pay-for-stories |
The way the media handled the children of those arrested in the raid to capture illegal immigrants violates many of the standards set forth by UNICEF when doing stories about children or interviewing children. No doubt, some reporter will probably earn an Emmy for it. That is where we are right now. |
You sound idealistic and White. Wait and see how the fair and just US judicial system treats this young girl. The victim in the Rockville rape case was only 14. Just three years older. And it was deemed ‘consensual’. I hope this girl gets justice, but the US judicial system can be just as dysfunctional. |

One of the men had 4 kids. 4 kids. |
That's where the protests should be - in front of the local tv stations that aren't covering this. |
The way the media violated those kids' privacy was appalling. Who gave them permission to interview the minors anyway if their parents were locked up? |

So many xenophobic jerks. SMH.

Hopefully they get interviewed by the police along with the mother too. I can't imagine what he's been doing behind closed doors. |
This story is just horrible. |
Plus videos on his phone. We’re those distributed, etc? I hope this guy gets punished to the greatest extent possible. |
WJLA and FOX were the only stations covering this story. |
His name is out there right? I don't think other prisoners like child rapists very much. They may save the tax payers the deportation cost with his name and picture out there. |
| Waiting for Trump to pick this up. Make sure to @ him |
An 11 year old was raped and that’s your key takeaway from the conversation? Utter moron. |
