Martin called Rolling Stone’s treatment of the university ‘drive-by journalism’ and denounced the damage done to the university’ reputation. Martin opened the meeting by expressing the board’s ‘collective sorrow’ for the students, faculty, fraternities and others on campus who had been ‘wrongly maligned and traumatized’ by Rolling Stone’s now disputed article alleging a gang rape and massive cover up by U.Va.”
You know, UVA President Teresa Sullivan has been remarkably supine in the face of Rolling Stone’s libel since, false or not, it advanced her preferred campus agenda. But the Board may feel differently.
