"From the Dan Rather school of pseudo journalism...”Fake but accurate”?"

There's been a lot of that "fake, but accurate" sentiment this week. Do you think that would be the rallying cry if Fox News had been the one to come out with this bogus story? Then the emphasis would all be on Fox News's incompetence and unprofessionalism. But Rolling Stone's image has hardly taken a hit.

This is the liberal media push to suppoprt their VAWA and the new sexual abuse rules they are pushing on the Campuses. Even the liberal Harrvard lawyers are starting to push back. They saiD quote: " Harvard has adopted procedures for deciding cases of alleged sexual misconduct which lack the most basic elements of fairness and due process, are overwhelmingly stacked against the accused, and are in no way required by Title IX law or regulation. Here our concerns include but are not limited to the following: ■ The absence of any adequate opportunity to discover the facts charged and to confront witnesses and present a defense at an adversary hearing. ■ The lodging of the functions of investigation, prosecution, fact-finding, and appellate review in one office, and the fact that that office is itself a Title IX compliance office rather than an entity that could be considered structurally impartial. ■ The failure to ensure adequate representation for the accused, particularly for students unable to afford representation."
