UVA and the alleged frat rape - Rolling Stone backpedals

Eff you, DW ... You ain't got shit on PW2. Quit trolling ...

 

Two weeks into the 2016 Summer Olympics, 32-year-old Ryan was crushing it in the pool. A chatty, straight-A achiever from Rochester, N.Y., he'd initially been intimidated by the Games' aura of success, where throngs of toned, tanned and overwhelmingly blond swimmers fanned across a landscape of newly constructed tax boondoggles, hurrying to McDonald's, the pool, the bar scene, and all-night fuck sessions with Brazilian synchronized divers; Ryan's orientation leader had warned him that the Olympians' schedules were so packed that "no one has time to date – people just hook up." But despite his reservations, Ryan had flung herself into village life, attending events, joining clubs, making friends and, now, being asked to go to a party with some of his teammates. He and Gunnar had met while working training shifts together at the Olympic training pool, and Ryan had been floored by Gunnar's invitation to dinner, followed by a party with fellow Olympians.

I knew it, too, right away. I just was away then.

 

Erdely takes the stand ...
This isn't the best story on yesterday's section of the trial, but its the first I've come across.

I'm a very sympathetic person, usually.

I have almost no sympathy for her.

 

Same. She clearly was devoid of journalistic ethics more than once.

 

What happened when two ex-Kansas rowers accused a football player of sexual assault

 

Now I want to see the complaint they filed against the university. The article leaves me feeling sorry for both victims, but also wondering what it is they think Kansas did legally wrong.

My impression after reading that article is that the victims and their parents are understandably angry about what happened and that they are misdirecting their anger at the university since no criminal charges are forthcoming.
