CNN Brings Porn Star on to Trash Steubenville
Following the worst reporting ever, CNN's Piers Morgan was doing some damage control for the network. Morgan had on CNN Reporter Poppy Harlow to try and give her a chance to save her reputation, which sunk quicker than Matt Lauer's in the matter of one live report.
But, Morgan's show wasn't going to pass up the chance to pile on the city of Steubenville some more.
In an "exclusive" interview, Piers talked to a Porn Star that was raped in the only city where people are raped....Steubenville, Ohio.
Former Porn actress Traci Lords went of Morgan's show to say that she was raped as a young girl growing up in Steubenville, Ohio.
Speaking to CNN's Piers Morgan on Thursday, the 44-year-old starlet said she was just ten years old when she was attacked by a 14-year-old boy.
“I was born and raised in Steubenville, Ohio and I was raped in Ohio, as was my mother," she said.
The tight-knit town is plagued by alcohol abuse and a troubling culture where boys are brought up to disrespect women, she told Morgan.
"I think there's a thickness in that city."
You can decide if a Porn Star saying she was raped is or is not news? But, to tie this to the rape case of a teenage girl raped by 2 football players, seems a bit of a stretch. The only thing in common with the two stories is the place that it happened...Steubenville.
To start painting the city of Steubenville with such a broad brush, basically saying that every guy in the city is an alcoholic that disrespects women, seems like overhype even for CNN.
If you tired every rape in say New York City, Piers Morgan's show would be booked for years.
The Porn Star did get to tell Piers that watching the trial helped you write a new song.
She told Morgan “And I got really angry, and so I wrote a song called 'Stupidville,' which is what all the locals [used to call it]."
So, in other words she was on CNN to talk about rape and pimp her new song.
I'm never visiting Steubenville as long as a live.
