TRIGGER WARNING: RAPE & RAPE CULTURE

Lara Logan, the CBS reporter who was separated from her crew while covering the revolution in Egypt and brutally raped by a mob of men is apparently to blame for her abuse because she once had cleavage. Right here, in black and white, Dan Rottenburg says that women who don't want to be raped should stop going outside and wear turtlenecks.

Sign the petition to have Rottenburg removed as editor. Stay away from the comments: he refers to this as "avant guarde" journalism (I WAS JOKING!!!) and accuses the people who are angry of making mountains out of molehills and stopping conversation.

And a few additions that are all mine:

- Do not read the comments on the original post. DO NOT READ THE COMMENTS. Unless you like having your head explode with rage and the desire to vomit and despair for all humanity.

- As cheesy as it feels to say this, this journal is a safe space, so if you feel the need to explode misogyny all over something by telling me about 'reasonable precautions' or some other horseshit like I and every other woman on the planet have never heard the same song and dance before, you can go hang with the douches on the OP. This is not where that is happening. Defriending/banination will follow should you feel the need to try that jazz here.
