You would think that erudite progressive sites like Jezebel and Slate would eschew the “war on women” angle for tacky celebrity scandals about nude pictures—especially when there’s a story out there about sexual abuse run rampant. Rotherham child sex scandal case of ‘not wanting to rock the multicultural community boat’

Author and Paleo lifestyle guru John Durant took a look at how their coverage broke down.
