CNN on Sunday aggressively covered the breaking news of the verdict in the Steubenville rape case. Star football players Trent Mays, 17, and Ma’lik Richmond, 16, were found guilty of raping a 16-year-old girl. Propelled by social media and mainstream media, the Steubenville case has long held a high profile.
The scrutiny that comes with its profile descended on CNN. In repeated segments yesterday, CNN featured reports from reporter Poppy Harlow, who was in Ohio for the verdict. Here’s the transcript of some of the coverage at the 11 a.m. hour:

POPPY HARLOW, CNN CORRESPONDENT: "I’ve never experienced anything like it, Candy. It was incredibly emotional — incredibly difficult even for an outsider like me to watch what happened as these two young men that had such promising futures, star football players, very good students, literally watched as they believe their life fell apart."

The response from Twitter: Not supportive.
Dear @CNN, the verdict didn't "ruin" the "promising" lives of #Steubenville rapists. Their decision to rape did. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/03/17/cnn-grieves-that-guilty-verdict-ruined-promising-lives-of-steubenville-rapists/#.UUYZwiNjwvA.twitter …
CNN seems more concerned about the convicted rapist than the rape victim. This is astonishing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvUdyNko8LQ …

The reason they support abortion so strongly is so that middle-aged men can have sex with kids and not face any repercussions or responsibility.
WTH, sounds like the female reporterettes are OK with rape...
I am.
That’s funny!
Is that pronounced La dash A?
I’m still waiting for a few football players named “Hard Drive” and “Down Load” and a cheerleader named “Propecia”.
“Is that pronounced La dash A?”
Yeah, now isn’t that special! We used to see a local comedian by the name of Bobby Slayton. He did a bit where he claimed that Black women got the names for their children by walking through the drug store.
Poppy is kinda dumb, but she is hot.
