Shock Jocks, Interragation and Lack of Family Support

For those who have been living under a rock Kylie and Jackie O have been pulled off Austereo radio stations due to an incident where they put a 14 year old on a lie dectector test whilst her mum asked her questions about her personal life to win concert tickets. The girl revealed that she had been raped at the age of 12. Now whilst Kyle and Jackie O should not of broadcasted it in the first place, the media circus that has followed it has been deplorable and Last Nights Episode of ACA was the lowest point.
More relatives of the girl said on A Current Affair that “they didn’t believe that she was raped and that she was drunk blah blah blah”

Now hold on.
HOW THE FUCK DOES A 12 YEAR OLD GAIN ACCESS TO ALCOHOL?
AND HOW WAS A 12 YEAR OLD GET INTO A SITUATION THAT SHE GETS RAPED?

Personally I believe the girl is not at fault, the family has failed at making sure that this child was kept out of harms way. I hope that the girl has been referred to a decent therapist and someone that cares about her more than her family does.
