3 thoughts on “Cornell Student Accused of Rape Sues University Claiming Due Process Violations

  1. Does the Cornell Review do any original reporting or is it just going to keep copying stuff from other sources

    1. We dabble in both. By the way, this isn’t “copying” — the source is properly cited.

    2. “Copying stuff” (and citing the source) is standard practice by the media. It is so easy for a newspaper to be sued (using any one of a number of laws against the Constitutionally guaranteed freedom of the press) for printing a mistake, that the only safe thing is to only publish what someone else has said, and to only claim that someone else said something.

      Have you ever noticed that the media usually say “in” when most of us would say “of” or “for?” Thus, Magee Green has been arrested “in” the murder of Anthony Nazaire, not “for” the murder… By treating “The Murder of Anthony Nazaire” as a serial fiction, not as something that actually happened, the press try to avoid any responsibility whatsoever for suggesting that there really is someone named Magee Green, for suggesting that anyone has ever actually been arrested for anything, or that anyone has ever actually been murdered. It’s all a story! …And in the latest episode of “The Murder of Anthony Nazaire,” Magee Green is arrested.

      The sad thing is that we depend upon these folks for information.
