The established media won't touch it except for an occasional Editor-insisted essay on a weekend and usually on Page Four. I've seen the articles from time-to-time and they always walk the soft-worded view back until it comes-off as nothing more than it's something sordid that happens far away and the reader should feel better that it doesn't happen close to home. Whether it's the fear of rocking the boat or just an erroneous acceptance that this is how different cultures exist and we should somehow embrace the diversity, I cannot say. Personally, I'd cut the balls off anyone I caught doing it... but eh, that's just me being ignorant and unable to appreciate other countries traditions. It used to be said that Journalism was the act of 'Fighting The Devil'... but these days, it's just a forum to discuss middle-class concerns over transport disputes that effects their cities and to explain to the village idiot-reader that the mainstream media know better. Crickets, I agree. |
