The Rolling Stone article took the accuser's side.
Which implicitly presumes the guilt of the accused.
The Rolling Stone article wouldn't have had any apologizing to do if they were merely spotlighting the situation objectively.
Even if they didn't assume the accused was guilty, the notion we should be looking for an evil sex cult who would shove a woman through a glass table and assault her while she was covered in blood with no evidence is a bit much
But that statement, absent the context, implies guilt.
Not to mention the fact that the primary "accused" wasn't a real person anyway
That's literally the problem with news today.
Magazines and outlets want to give their stories that 'Human touch'
Well if we believe someone when they say they've been assaulted, someone does have to be guilty of having assaulted them, unless we are to assume delusion
We just can't assume it's the person they point out
That means they have to get really close with the subject.
And that means taking a side.
The standards of 'Good Journalism' to the mainstream today requires taking the risk of being dramatically wrong.
And actual good journalism comes across as boring.
well, no.
I'd say Tim does good journalism
But that's largely because he has a bias that he 1. doesn't hide, but 2. keeps on a leash.
The only true objective way to cover it is by accepting a 'Schrodinger's Cat' paradox state.
Jesus christ. Sargonites already saw this shit, but holy shit...
Okay. I'm going to add a detail with every iteration of this. Let me know when it sounds insane.
A NASCAR driver lost a sponsorship over a comment.

A NASCAR driver lost a sponsorship over a comment from 30 years ago MADE BY HIS FATHER. AND THE DRIVER IS 26 YEARS OLD.
It doesnt even matter no more what you are saying, if your great grandfather said smth stupid in 1921, you are screwed
its the same argument made for reparations
"The Sins of the Father are not the sins of the Son."
Oh how we have strayed.
Also, this has gone beyond ridiculous at this point. What's the endgame? Children turning on their parents?
We approach the Chinese Cultural revolution increasingly by the day. People forget the cultural revolution lasted a full decade and was a fever among all parts of society (though students were the most visible).
Someone is suing CBS over Star Trek Discovery being plagiarism
Shit, pretty sure my great great grandfather called someone the n word... better go kill myself.
Wait, that is real.
