'The Hunting Ground' predicted for Oscar nomination

Article here. Excerpt:

'The campus sexual assault propaganda film "The Hunting Ground" will be in the running for an Oscar, according to predictions from Variety editor Kristopher Tapley.

But "The Hunting Ground" is not a documentary about a horrific epidemic of violence across the U.S., it is a propaganda film based on false statistics and inaccurate accounts of accusers. The film relies heavily on the claim that 1-in-5 women will be sexually assaulted in college, a statistic that has been debunked time and time again as the result of biased and flawed studies.

It also relies on the "expertise" of researcher David Lisak, whose own study claiming that campuses are hotbeds for serial rapists was debunked just a couple months ago. Lisak's study, which has been used to legitimize eviscerating due process rights for accused students, wasn't even about sexual assaults that occur on campus.

Beyond the faulty statistics, the accusations in the film haven't held up to scrutiny, either. The film presents Kamilah Willingham's accusation as evidence that schools let violent offenders back on campus after finding them responsible for sexual assault. But the man Willingham accused, while found responsible and suspended from Harvard University, was found guilty in a court of law of only "misdemeanor touching of a nonsexual nature." The reason for this was that Willingham was not a credible witness.'
