✓ Balanced Reporting [9/10]: The article avoids overt emotional language when describing abuse or public reaction, instead letting quotes from survivors and visitors convey sentiment.

"We all need to be more outraged,” one reads. “Where is the justice?” reads another."

✓ Balanced Reporting [9/10]: Use of neutral descriptors for politically charged elements (e.g., 'purposefully provocative' for the name) maintains objectivity.
