“We take sexual violence extremely seriously” you offered the seven men who raped her the chance to write an ESSAY as a form of mitigation for their actions. You are 100% complicit in this.
Growing up, a hit song crossed demographics whether the genre was your favorite or not. People who don’t primarily listen to country still know Dolly, Shania, Carrie, The Chicks, etc. because they made actual hit records that crossed over. If a song can spend 23 weeks at #1, breaking records that stood for 20+ years, while a huge portion of the public is sincerely saying they’ve never heard it, maybe the conversation isn’t “people hate country.” Maybe @RollingStone should be writing about how streaming-era chart dominance no longer equals cultural dominance because there’s some trickery at play. That’s the real story being avoided. Don’t gaslight us.
Don’t know who this kid is. If you do, tag him for credit.
Every word is spot on. Everyone outside of LA knows it’s true and half of LA pretends like it’s not true.
Kudos to the student journalists at The Cornell Daily Sun.
This is why journalism matters, at all levels. Keep shining a light on the darkest corners of power.
NEW: Oregon's Dan Lanning ends his presser saying he's 3-0 against USC:
"If you're interested in winning football games, you're from this area, you should go to Oregon. You want to go to a Chris Brown concert, you should go here (USC)."

The only fun thing about being a Stanford football fan is once a season, we beat a team we should not have beaten, and suddenly all their fans are calling for firing the head coach, systematic reform, and a program overhaul
So fucking proud of this Oregon team tonight.
They lost their QB and still kept the decade of West Coast dominance intact.
And I love that Dylan Raiola has that dog in him.
Go Ducks!!!!
