Discussion for article #235585
Wonder how many of the people who denounced and smeared her have personally apologized for what they did. The fact that Rolling Stone will be writing her a big check isn’t really in doubt, but what about all the people who attacked her? Have they realized the mistake they made in jumping to conclusions, or have they already forgotten what they did after blaming someone else?

Exactly. “Cash” is only part of an apology. The “real” part is a direct statement to those you wronged.
Not fair.
They didn’t “jump” to conclustions and you are very wrong in misstating that. Rolling Stone libeled this woman. People trusted the written, edited, and published word of a respected publication, and had no way of knowing or foreseeing it is was raw, unverified libel. She is a big victim, but those who accosted her are also smaller victims of Rolling Stone’s indefensible wanton misconduct.
