I'd like to call this reporter something unprintable.

March 18, 2016



That's the Web address of an article written by Susan Zalkind, for Vice.

Owen Labrie was at St. Paul's School because of a scholarship, not because he's a "rich kid," as she characterized him in her article.

Her Twitter says that she was invited to the Today show because of the article she wrote about approaching Owen Labrie on a train, where she pretended to be politely and perhaps even solicitously curious about what he was doing and how he was.  If he had cursed her and told her to leave him alone as soon as she introduced herself, would she have spared him the last line of the subsequent article in which she accused HIM of trying to manipulate HER?

Now she's taking the credit for putting him in jail.

Why did she do it?  To take me on personally and get something from it professionally?

"One of New England's Most Notorious Sex Offenders," she called him, for an article that she did for a publication that has a picture of a human skeleton stuffed and surrounded by steaks on the first page of the section called "Magazine."  Even the eye sockets of the skeleton have bloody meat in them.




That's the webpage that corresponds with the section that says "Magazine," from the drop menu at the page at Vice where Ms. Zalkind exploited a young man's terrible mistake to her professional advantage.

She didn't want to criticize the Boston Globe, which has promoted sexual abuse, including child rape, on its front page every day for more than 6 years?  What about the Boston Herald, which has "Innovator of the Year" permanently on its front page for an award that it won LAST YEAR?  What about the New York Times, or any other newspaper or media source that has promoted sexual abuse?  What about the White House?  

Plague someone your size, lady, or bigger than you, instead of pretending that you care.
