Lying about your family dying in the Holocaust is a lovely thing to do, just like lying about rape. Any news media that runs with those lies without fact checking them is a laughingstock, especially when the smallest amount of fact checking could disprove the lie.

otoh no one thinks they're a laughingstock except right wingers who smell blood and goony misogynists (but I repeat myself) who just smell

But I mean, I don't know man, lying about rape is pretty high up there on the List of lovely Things to Do. Like I can't imagine even marginally defending a person who lied about rape because it's a bad and it makes you a bad.

I don't recall defending the act, I recall criticising the hooting ape circlejerk about how take cthat feminism. Is this so difficult

it must be nice to be able to believe that the reason the occupation of afghanistan didnt go well is that we had the wrong interchangable half-bright closet case bureaucrat signing the literal death warrants, in the way it must be nice to believe that fairies will pay quarters for your teeth

You know it is kind of interesting though that when a news outlet publishes a blatant lie about other topics nobody seems to really care all that much or demand stringent fact checking.

'I'm against rape and for integrity in journalism :qq:' just kind of makes it sound like a 'I'm not racist but...' rhetorical device.






So why suddenly outrage over this Rolling Stone rape article? Because it is besmirching the good name of Phi Kappa Psi and the University? Because Rolling Stone is a bastion of ethical hard hitting journalism? I mean yeah they should be called on their bullshit but it's not like it's a national news story every time Fox News or CNN or whoever blatantly lie.

I get that the justice system needs to keep a cool head and not turn a problem into an even bigger one by instituting witch hunts but I feel like the sudden righteous indignation over a false news story like it's 1950 or something is a little strange.

they're liars latching onto an excuse to attack feminism

I bet that Matt Taibbi regrets going back to Rolling Stone at the exact same time that RS flushes all credibility down the toilet forever.

that seems a bit extreme, their credibility isn't gone forever except in the eyes of subhumans whose opinions do not and have never mattered
