True, and I completely agree. I wouldn't expect him not to mention where it happened in the story. I just disagree with the headline. As far as I'm concerned the headline should sum up the biggest fact of the story. That is NOT that this occured at a fraternity house - that is that it's the fifth rape (allegedly) to occur at the campus so far this year. "Fifth attack of year alleged at U of A" would be more accurate and not so sensationalistic.
