Rolling Stone has ALWAYS proudly proclaimed they far left view. They said that was good, since they always got the facts right.

Rolling Stone FALSELY REPORTS GANG RAPE AT UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA. Now hiding under their desks.

Like a Rolling Stone

A charge of rape at UVA unravels, and so does a political narrative.
Updated Dec. 6, 2014 2:40 p.m. ET

Rolling Stone magazine has now acknowledged “discrepancies” in an article it published last month about an alleged premeditated gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity. Reporter Sabrina Rubin Erdely made sensational allegations based solely on the testimony of the alleged victim. Ms. Erdely also made no attempt to get a comment from the alleged assailants, a failing that bloggers and columnists first pointed out.

All publications make mistakes, including us, but this one is worth some meditation for what it says about our larger media and political culture. All the more so given the amount of laudatory national attention the story received, and the trauma it caused at UVA.

That's going to tick off our local feminists....They think there's no such thing as sex that isn't rape...far as I can tell from what they say...oh they did say Tom Selleck is ok whether they are drunk roofied or whatever......

All people, men, women, feminists or whoever, this could discourage women who have been assaulted from reporting it for fear of it sounding like this fiasco. The men at that Fraternity have been assaulted in the media not unlike the Duke La Cross players who were falsely tried and found guilty in the media.

I hope the fraternity and all the members sues the Rolling Stone and the reporter for their eye teeth.
