Christie Blatchford At It Again—Victim-blaming Rehtaeh Parsons

Bloody sickening. Thank you Patrick McGuire at Vice for writing this:

WHY IS CHRISTIE BLATCHFORD BLAMING REHTAEH PARSONS?

I would love to have a newspaper column. I’d love to have a dedicated group of readers. I’d love to write to stir up the status quo. I’d love to reach people with ideas. 
But I wouldn’t want to live and write in the world that Christie Blatchford has created for her career. I honestly don’t know what to think of her anymore because I just can’t believe that anyone truly has these beliefs—beliefs so incendiary—so much of the time. 
Is her writing a ruse? Does she cry when she writes them, knowing she wouldn’t have a job if she didn’t keep up this Oz routine?
