I'd say this gang rape story is fake but accurate!

It is, and always has been, editorializing for the Left. That’s why it’s in cartoon form. They can understand it better....................!
So the liberals go to their fallback position: "Well, maybe it's not true. But it calls attention to the problem of rape on campus."
OMG, it’s worse than I thought. He just couldn’t resist the opportunity to perpetuate the slander. Some commentators said that when the dust settled, the public would remember lie, not that it was a hoax.
Might UVA have a cause of action against Mr. Trudeau?
Just can’t let the inconvenient truth get in the way of the desired narrative, eh?
That he is so utterly uninformed is the punchline
I’m waiting for his strip on the Duke lacrosse player gang rape.
Like many in the liberal media, Trudeau has successfully wrapped up political propaganda in entertaining packaging in order to create persistent impressions about conservatives. Doonesbury, The Daily Show, Colbert, Family Guy, Rolling Stone, and Saturday Night Live regularly mock Republicans in the worst possible way, which has now been ingrained in the national psyche. Flat-out falsehoods about things Sarah Palin or Dan Quayle have said are taken as solid truth by the majority of Americans
Isn’t he the husband of a former Today show host, Jane Pauley? Lost respect for her!
“But mom, where were you when Bill Clinton was raping and molesting everything on 2 legs?”
Trudeau is the punchline. He just doesn't know it.
Trudeau and his "humor," much like George Carlin, peaked in the '70's and just can't let go. Like most Liberals, he finds comfort in angst, and meaning in turmoil. Absent the angst and turmoil, their lives are pointless, for there is no productive good in them.
Truly pathetic.
It would have been funny if the Dad ended up telling her it was false.
And then telling the kid, “OK, you can go there.”
The TRUESBURY stuff is awesome!

See, I think people have it all wrong. Trudeau is SPOOFING liberals by mocking them with their phony-baloney causes and his boring old punchlines he keeps using decade adter decade.
If Doonesbury was posted as an FR thread - it would have to come with (SATIRE) in the title.
I read Doonesbury back in the early ‘70s. Although I didn’t like its political slant, from time to time it was actually funny. Importantly, some of the characters on both sides of the aisle were likeable.
What the heck happened to Boopsie?! She was a classic ditzy blonde who enjoyed a good time with no real underlying political philosophy. Her default position would be to go along with B.D., who was a “kill a Commie for Mommie” right-winger. I understand they are older, and the intensity would be dialed down, but this Boopsie and B.D. are NOT the same characters Trudeau himself created a long time ago.
Agreed. And anyone who equates his crap with Boomers in general is an even bigger moron.
‘Our brand’?....what the heck is he talking about?............
“Style over Substance.”
It’s a “progressive-liberal” thing.
That was AWESOME! Thanks.
I’m guessing that his acknowlegement that the “flaws” in the Rolling Stone article didn’t matter open him up to libel charges.
Not that UVA will pursue them, or that the modern court system would permit the plaintiffs to win ... but the point of lawfare is to create messy, public and expensive to defend lawsuits where winning is a secondary consideration.
