    “There are two sides to this coin. We have to own up to the fact that women, since time immemorial, have gone out of their way to make themselves attractive. And unfortunately it has backfired on us — and this is where we are today,” Lansbury said. “We must sometimes take blame, women. I really do think that. Although it’s awful to say we can’t make ourselves look as attractive as possible without being knocked down and raped.”

    During the Radio Times interview, the Murder She Wrote star also said, “Should women be prepared for this? No, they shouldn’t have to be! There’s no excuse for that. And I think it will stop now — it will have to. I think a lot of men must be very worried at this point.”

    Here's the quote in question, since it's only alluded to in the CNN article, which reads more like a gossip magazine.

    I think it's important to note that she is NOT saying that women share some of the blame for rape. She's saying that women share some of the blame for harassment. I'm not necessarily agreeing with her, just stating that there is a distinction between what she said and what people are saying that she said.
