    I don't know that she ever did learn it, did she? The Post said the first time "Jackie" revealed it was this week, to her friends. Seems to me that Erdely was flying blind even on "Drew." And that's where I think it's going to show she mislead Woods and Dana, saying she knew who they were and that they existed, when really she didn't.

    I'm going to be a douche, but it's nails on the chalk board to me: it's not a "frat. It's s fraternity. "Frat" is pejorative.

    In my defense, I'm Ohio State and this thread is Wisconsin. I've got the walk-on posts in now.

    Touche.

    I would hate for us to get bogged down in the problems of rape and bad journalism and miss the real point: how frats Frats FRATS are ruining college and America.

    Would you call your country a pussycat?

    No.

    Then don't call a fraternity, a frat.
