According to the Washington Post, writer Sabrina Erderly set her sites on writing a story about college rape. One wonders now if coming up snake eyes on any sensational stories allowed her to welcome a fabricated story by a student named Jackie. Or worse still, did Sabrina simply fabricate one, like the leftist writers have done many times before? Think Stephen Glass, Michael Finkel or Jayson Blair. Under scrutiny, her Rolling Stone Magazine report is increasingly being looked upon with a bit of skepticism.
Details of her subject’s story, upon reflection has glaring inconsistencies. The girl who was raped supposedly lay in a pile of shards of glass and was ground into it for hours by fraternity brothers, who apparently didn’t think of moving her off of the glass so they wouldn’t be cut, or at the very least, made to feel unpleasant.
When she left the fraternity house she had to walk past a group of people at a party, none of whom noticed that she was bleeding.

They will never be able to “win” with the truth, therefore any means necessary will justify the ends to Progressives. In fact, I believe they think it’s noble.
The Anti-Capitalist, Anti-White Patriarchy narrative is what’s important – not some stupid, trivial facts!
B…buuuuttt…THE ISSUE is real and important so, if all her details aren’t exactly accurate (or even real), that doesn’t maaaaatter.

p.s. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!
I couldn’t look myself in the mirror if I did something like this. I guess it’s called integrity, something a progtard lacks
I can see her explanation now. ” ‘Jackie’ represented many of the stories I discovered rolled into one character. She may not be real but her pain is.”
I bet the rough draft had the frat boys as vampires, and Sabrina loves “Fifty Shades of Grey”.
@Burnt Toast…
You mean like a “Composite Girlfriend”?
@ Thirdtwin….EXACTLY!….beat me to it…LOL
More likely than not this represents just the latest Gruberism. That is all the left actually has on any subject. The left relies on lack of transparency and in this one we have TOTAL lack of transparency. Let’s just say: I am skeptical.
For the collectivist, it doesn’t have to be true.
It just has to be “truthy.”
The only thing that matters is that a Liberal’s bias gets confirmed.
Their righteous rage against the Patriarchy doesn’t need any stinking facts as long as it advances the agenda.
Maybe Miss Elderly just imagined the story. Old age will do that to you.
Ermagerd! Yet another lying progtard!
