(MODERNITY) – After a group of migrants gang-raped a 13-year-old girl in Italy, CNN responded by expressing concern about how it might help the “far-right.”
The girl was raped in front of her boyfriend in a public park in the Sicilian city of Catania. The seven suspects are all Egyptian migrants and three were under the age of 18.
In reporting the story, CNN’s main focus was to worry about how the incident, which is just “the latest in a string of shocking sexual attacks in the country,” might increase political support for the right-wing.
