Melanie Sill at the Raleigh N&O pushed the June 16 entry on Duke Lacrosse into the archives giving the temporary appearance that it had been deleted. It took us a while to figure that out. She then put up a new entry which has 10 comments already. In the new thread I just pasted in a direct link to the old thread.

"Today marks the four-month anniversary of the Raleigh News & Observer’s publication of the story that first identified the Duke Men’s lacrosse team as suspects in a gang-rape investigation. In its story, the N&O repeatedly told readers the woman was “the victim.” It never once used the conditional qualifier “alleged.”
"The N&O’s March 24 story was the first of many biased and inflammatory news stories and columns the N&O produced. They cast the accuser as a victim and framed the lacrosse team as made up of three brutal rapists and their teammates who stood by indifferently while the woman was raped, and then later refused to help police identify their rapist teammates.. .

LOL! Good work, MM!! :>
