Can you sue for sloppy journalism? The Phi Kappa Psi house has been vandalized and had its activities suspended all because a Rolling Stone reporter was so eager to advance her career in advocacy journalism that she forgot (I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt here) to fact check her source.

Phi Kappa Psi did not even have a party or any social function the weekend the phony rape took place. The accused rapist wasn’t even a member of PKP and had never even met the phony victim.

Ultimately, the editors of Rolling Stone are to blame. Its their JOB to get the who, when and where correct before they go to press and potentially ruin someone’s life over a false allegation. I believe the editors did this because striking a blow against the white male patriarchy gives them more of a hard on than getting the story right.
