“The journalist poisons the well with 3 episodes of genuinely heartbreaking trauma and abuse, before beginning the 4th episode with the disarming fact that she didn’t have to kill him and then continues on as if it hasn’t been said.
While this woman was a victim, this podcast disingenuously weaves a tragic backstory before admitting the details of the crime and endlessly painting her in a flattering light.
This is all punctuated with a deeply cynical and biased tone which clearly reflects a view from the author that an abused woman cannot possibly also be a perpetrator. An inability to confront the facts of the case without applying a very rigid filter of victim vs perpetrator, men vs women, and truth vs ideology leads to an unemployable and deeply biased end product.”
