'Victims Can Lie as Much as Other People'
What the Somaly Mam scandal says about the media's treatment of humanitarian heroes

被害者も他の人同様に嘘をつくこともあるーーー慰安婦問題で、事実に基づいて反論しても、そんなことを言おうものなら・・・・

Kristof said. “Over the years, for example, I’ve learned that victims of human rights abuses lie and exaggerate as much as perpetrators do. It’s very easy if you’re passionate and outraged to listen to victims and not double-check and triple-check and listen to the other side―or to get defensive when you’ve taken the victims’ side and not investigate charges that you’ve gone too far.”

ＡＰのヤマグチ記者に聞かせてやりたい。

いずれにせよ、被害者は嘘をつくこともあるから、裏を取るのはしっかりと、とか説教していたのに、自分が、嘘をひろめていたわけですね。

No reporter went quite as far as Kristof in elevating Mam’s profile. The crusading journalist has promoted her work in half a dozen columns and blog posts, as well as his documentary, Half the Sky. He even penned the foreword to her autobiography, The Road of Lost Innocence, in which he called her “the Harriet Tubman of Southeast Asia’s brothels.”

あの手のジャーナリストはThe crusading journalistというのか。いいね。

It appears Nicholas Kristof knew, long before most, that journalists were calling Pross’s story into question.

　米軍慰安婦問題は、タブチ記者もファクラー記者もハヤシ記者もヤマグチ記者も知っているのにねええ。
