The compact steep-spectrum source 3C 119 has been mapped using the VLBA at four frequencies spread over the 5 GHz observing band. The high rotation-measure reported at short wavelengths is found to continue unbroken beyond the depolarization wavelength indicating that 3C 119 is depolarized by an external medium.
