"Rolling Stone Officially Withdraws UVA Story, Blames Rape Victims"

Article here. Excerpt:

'The editors at Rolling Stone have largely laid the blame at the feet of “Jackie,” the UVA student whose allegations of a brutal gang rape at a fraternity house formed the central narrative of Erdely’s story.

Back in December, in the magazine’s first public statement distancing itself from Erdely’s reporting, managing editor Will Dana wrote that “we have come to the conclusion that our trust in her was misplaced.” Sean Woods, who personally edited the story, takes a similar tact in the magazine’s report of its decision to retract Erdely’s article. “Ultimately, we were too deferential to our rape victim. We honored too many of her requests in our reporting. We should have been much tougher,” Woods said.'
