Woman drives children into dam, media paints her as a saint with no suggestion of ill will

Here's an interesting article about a woman who drove her children into a dam.

Interesting to note the difference in tone to the article about the guy who drove his children into a dam.

Interesting to note that the who article about the woman focused on how distraught she was, was a loving mother she is and how her inactivity at the scene of the accident was most likely due to shock.  Contrast that with the guy who drove his children into the dam whose inactivity at the scene of the accident was attributed to his intent and guilt instead of shock.

I guess if you're a female then you're afforded a level of defense in the media that men are not.
