Vex: "If you actually read the comments, no one here has blamed the victim. They are merely pointing out that the network and the crew failed to realize that sending a white, female reporter into a mob of sexually repressed men in a frenzied state is a terrible idea."

Really?

Luxury_pie: "But her in this mob not concerned at least a bit AND withouth any knowledge of what is BOUND to happen? That's like going straight into a horde of hungry lions, covered in tasty tasty blood, attacking their chilren and wondering why am I in a lion's digestive system suddenly? In case you did not know, lions like digesting things"

Adrianblack: " "Since you are a woman and won't be strong enough to defend yourself if someone is deadly serious on their intent - never allow yourself to get into a situation where you could be compromised."

Excellent advice from a sage lady...I wish that Lara would have realized that herself."

It was "bound to happen" so she "should have been more careful". If "Lara would have realized that herself" then it would not have happened.

This appears to me like the typical reaction to a rape story. They are looking for what the woman victimized has done wrong. I believe that the wrong lies solely with the rapist, in all circumstances.

She had no idea? Well read a book once in a while...
I mean, don't get me wrong, in my western view of things, this is a report of the most horrible and disgusting human behaviour.
