CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) -- A fraternity at the University of Virginia announced Monday that it will "pursue all available legal action" against Rolling Stone, saying a Columbia Journalism School review shows the magazine acted recklessly and defamed its members by publishing an article that falsely accused them of gang rape.
"The Rolling Stone article viewed by millions fueled a court of public opinion that ostracized Phi Kappa Psi members and led to vandalism of the fraternity house," the fraternity's statement said

Lol. The frat boys are going to be fine! Rolling Stone on the other hand will go into bankruptcy.
The fraternity should go to court and PROVE that none of the BS Rolling Stone reported ever happened.
Hold on a second. This is is the University of Virginia we’re talking about here.
Not Duke, or University of North Carolina, or anybody else.
Thy may be GOING THE WAY ...of garage sales..newspapers....before very long
Oops, I meant UV’s district.
And classified ads. :-)
exactly...
there was a freebie paper here...that was called the Classified Gazette..the internet killed it rather quickly.
may the rolling stone meet the same fate
I hope the Greeks end up owning Rolling Stone hagazine by the time the dust settles. And may the dust settle soon.
Some politically incorrect hazing against RS writers & editors should a part of the punitive damages.
not sure how much they can win-
Remember Duke?- THE SCHOOL went after the players-
the Lefty profs published a paper against
the White boys! raping a dancer- total BS-
but the School went along with the profs- finally
“Duke University has reached an undisclosed financial settlement with three former men’s lacrosse players falsely accused of rape, the school said Monday”
But this took a LONNNNG time- and destroyed the
fraternity and a lot of lives.- rolling stone,
Ny slimes, other lefty rags- pretty well can make
anything up- and not be financially hurt by their
out-right -lies
That's why I'm rooting for Wisconsin....Puke on Duke!
Id like to be included on that team.
I wonder if the Dr Hook crew still wants to be on the cover of the Rolling Stone?
Well, I know they did at one time. They kept getting richer, but they couldn't get their picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone.
:-)
One of em has been working at a local music store here for at least the last 15 years
Interesting. I do not remember any of their names, but I liked some of their songs.
Id never been aware of there names back when they were “big”..
CraigsList has killed the classified ad business at newspapers. It’s easy, you can add photos, you’re in control and, of course best of all, it’s free.
You don’t think the libs like sprigsteen will crap? They will help rolling shiite
Obies worried about springsteen. He wants to keep thy guy who sings BORN IN THE USA happy.
