Rolling Stone Apologizes for UVA Rape Story

This is not a good week for the rape-hysteria industry, to say the least.

Check Ashe Schow, who's been all over this:

Don't become a fucking reporter if you're not willing to let the facts get in the way of a great story.

Also, worth noting that the Rolling Stone fauxpology puts the blame entirely on “Jackie" and none of it on itself. Because why not?

This was not a good week for real victims of rape

@AsheSchow This is what happens when you have journalists who think it's more important to push an agenda than checking facts

FIFY RT @AmandaMarcotte: Oops. My bad. Sorry about accusing everyone of being rape truthers. That was childish & incorrect.

Really, this is something else. Just wow. Virtually every "rape" meme spouted on the left is easily and furiously debunked. And then the hysterical rape "epidemic" mongers spout about how actually checking facts and debunking false leftist narratives is "rape denialism."

The left as a movement continues its historic descent into conspiracies, hysteria, and irrelevance. Man, it's been a rough six years for the so-called "coalition of the ascendant."
