In this version of the Chronulla Riots by Betoota Advocate on Channel 10, the revenge attacks ny the middle eastern men were downplayed. The broadcast mentions the sexual harassment the local women received from the visiting middle eastern men. However it fails to mention the recent gang rapes in Sydney by Middle Eastern men against Australian women as a probable contributor to the outrage, anger and fear within the Cronulla locals.
