As we begin our discussions into
feminist ethics, it is eerily fitting that the Steubenville rape case has
become a highlight in the news. If you have not heard the story yet, two
sixteen-year old football superstars from Steubenville, Ohio were charged with
raping an unconscious, blacked out sixteen-year old girl. They were caught from
their posting of pictures and videos of them taking advantage of the girl on
social media sites. The article “CNN
criticized for Steubenville verdict coverage” by Dylan Stableford of
Yahoo News describes the public outcry over CNN’s coverage of the boys being
sentenced with rape.
