I don't see how it implies anything of the sort.

It doesn't; it just claims that To Catch a Predator is so badly handled that it can make the pedophiles look like the sympathetic ones by comparison (Considering how much of an ass Chris Hansen is, that's not that far fetched)

O...kay. Let's go slow. It implies that the show (That doesnt even have any examples) makes Child Rapists Sympathetic and No One at Any Point said "This quote is bad, let's look for another one"

That's pretty much the point of Unintentionally Sympathetic. You might be interested in this conversation.

That is true. But still implies there is sympathy to be had and that it overwrites the condemnation as "Bad or Biased writing."

EDIT: Still. I will go there and try to change it through the proper means and ways. Thank you.
