19-year-old mother detained after baby found dead in South LA dumpster
A difficult report traveled fast. FOX 11 Los Angeles posted "19-year-old mother detained after baby found dead in South LA dumpster" on Tuesday, and within nine hours it was closing in on a hundred thousand views. A new upload on the station's channel usually gathers a few thousand views over its whole first day. This one is on course for something like twenty-eight times that.
The rest of the channel is quiet by comparison. FOX 11 overall is running well below its normal daily pace, and nearby stations KTLA 5 and CBS LA are also below their usual levels. The day before, a Hurricane Polo surf report and a report on a deputy shooting in Cudahy had been the station's standouts. Now this report is the one carrying the channel.
The title states what the station reported: a baby was found dead in a dumpster in South Los Angeles, and a 19-year-old mother has been detained. Viewers are responding in words as much as clicks, and the comments have nearly caught up with the likes.
