"That Night at Duke"

So Newsweek finally writes about what really happened. They had an entire year to do so; they only just got around to it now. Excerpt:

'Seligmann found the stereotyping especially painful. Recruited by Harvard and Yale, he had proudly chosen Duke. Now he was being portrayed, at least by implication, as a dumb jock. Some elements of the Duke community, like the girls' lacrosse team, rallied behind the players, but the faculty seemed to write them off as racists and thugs. "It was a very lonely feeling," Seligmann recalled. "You were looking for people to step up and be behind you when you most needed them. Certain people weren't there."'

Yep-- and you, Newsweek, may count yourself among them. But you are in good ocmpany; the rest of the MSM, academe, and the government all fall into that camp.
