I am now terribly sorry for having posted about the Rolling Stone story.
As others have mentioned, though, I hope the doubts about "Jackie's" story will not keep women who have been sexually assaulted from reporting it.

Very disappointed in Rolling Stone.

I am so incredibly angry that this was all false. This story made me question my support of Greek life, even though I have witnessed with my own eyes the good that can come from it. Even more importantly, I am incensed at the carelessness that has now made it even more challenging for rape victims to come forward. Eff them for this sheer irresponsibility, utter carelessness, and profound lack of professionalism.
