Sens. Gillibrand, McCaskill given super hero makeovers for fighting campus sexual assault

Article here. Excerpt:

'Hillary Clinton campaigned heavily this fall on the one-in-five campus rape statistic, promising to take on the “epidemic” of campus sexual assault. President Obama has cited the statistic. The White House teamed up with College Humor to create a stupid bear attack skit to make young men aware of the one-in-five statistic. However, that statistic, based on a 15-minute online survey of two Midwestern universities in 2007, is heavily disputed, and schools are reporting much lower numbers.

It is in this environment that young men in college are found guilty of sexual assault without trial, which has led both the alleged rapist of “Mattress Girl” and the fraternity falsely accused of gang rape in a debunked Rolling Stone article to file lawsuits against their accusers.

This post isn’t an ad for MacCallum’s special, though: it’s meant only to introduce the latest heroes to be honored for their fight against the epidemic of campus sexual assault. espnW recently announced those women named to its annual IMPACT25 list of athletes and influencers “who have made the greatest impact for women in sports.” ESPN teamed up with Marvel, which rendered the women as super heroes.'
