From comments to Steve Sailer:
November 20th: Oh my goodness! What a terrible story! It’s almost like something out of a movie… I can’t believe this kind of thing still happens in real life!
December 1st: OK, it’s clear this story was punched up a little for the press but it’s clear something awful, if not necessary cinematic, happened to this poor girl on that dreadful autumn night.
December 5th: All right, lot’s of inconsistencies… her friends, supporters and Rolling Stone itself are backing off. Still! The girl was abused and mixed up or conflated several details. That happens with trauma.
December 10th: Wait- is it possible this entire effing thing was made up to garner the attention and sympathy of a particular classmate?
