I thought the court’s decision was more interesting.
“Monday, U.S. District Judge Glen E. Conrad rejected an attempt by defense attorneys to prevent the woman from being questioned in an affidavit. Her lawyers had argued that being forced to give a deposition would cause harm to the woman’s mental health.”
If I was the plaintiff, that motion would be the centerpiece of my case.
Oh hell yes, let's make this all about the poor dear's mental health! What can the state possibly do to alleviate her suffering?
I too gave up my Scientific American subscription after that leftist Rennie took over. Every issue started to fill up with sociology crap.
That is an excellent point.

>>UPI, please stop pretending that you are protecting a rape victim here by not publishing her name. Jackie Coakley is not a victim. The people who were damaged by her lies are the victims.
The NY Times version of this story is similar. They ID “Jackie” (with the quotes), but of course so did the Rolling Stone story.

We should not be surprised that the NY Times also continues to protect one of the perps, as you pointed out.
What we have here is mass media malpractice. All are protecting a likely perp.

Otherwise known as "business as usual" for the propaganda corps.
