Bernadette Greene-Placentia says her memory of the attack is spotty and that she was knocked unconscious.

What the coverage shows

Both BBC News and 60 Minutes lead with Bernadette Greene-Placentia’s account of being raped or sexually assaulted while repairing or fixing a campaign sign, and both identify her as an Arizona congressional candidate. BBC News foregrounds that her memory is “spotty” and that she says she was knocked unconscious, details that do not appear in the 60 Minutes extract. 60 Minutes uniquely adds that she told the Phoenix New Times and describes her as a Democratic candidate for Congress.
