Deputy News Editor Jill Carter gives her two cents on the media's coverage of the Steubenville rape case. She raises concerns that, instead of focusing on the victim of rape, the media has focused on the tarnished football careers of the two convicted rapists.
Fourth Estate is George Mason University's official student-run news outlet.
The organization was formed in Fall 2013 in collaboration between the student newspaper, Broadside, and an student-run news website, Connect2Mason.
Our mission is to inform Mason students, faculty and alumni about what's happening in the community. Through a weekly publication and an online presence, Fourth Estate covers everything from the Board of Visitors to the next concert coming to the Patriot Center.
