pillory the mother

I'm not going to retell the whole "Kyle & Jackie O show" story, or argue about media ethics. What I can't figure out is why all the ooh-ahh comments are ignoring this:

THE CHILD'S MOTHER KNEW ABOUT THE RAPE & PUT HER ON LIVE RADIO TO BE ASKED ABOUT HER SEXUAL HISTORY.

With all the other crap, Kyle losing the radio show *and* the judging spot on Idol, we're hearing nothing about a woman who DELIBERATELY created a situation in which her daughter could be humiliated on national radio.

The hosts and the radio station are not the girl's parents - blame must be placed on the mother, who abused both the child's trust and her own authority.
