Hello all,

Did anyone happen to catch this Nancy Grace "parody" with Amy Poehler's character pretending to defend the survivor in the Duke lacrosse case? It sends a major, negative message about victim-blaming in an _ongoing _criminal case. I was disgusted and plan to use the clip to spark discussion with my peer educators. If anyone has any thoughts on a response to SNL, please get in touch with me. I'd love for them to hear that advocates are following this case and that they grossly misrepresented the facts.
