From my new column in Taki’s Magazine:
Sabrina Rubin Erdely’s Malice in BlunderlandRead the whole thing there.by Steve Sailer

If you want to understand Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president, a good place to start is the current libel trial against Rolling Stone for publishing Sabrina Rubin Erdely’s ridiculous hate hoax article, “A Rape on Campus: A Brutal Assault and a Struggle for Justice at UVA.”…
Yet the libeled Eramo will have a hard time getting justice because Erdely may have been a true believer in the nonsense that Jackie Coakley concocted. Here are excerpts from a taped conversation between Coakley and Erdely in which the well-matched pair egg each other on. Indeed, the coed seems like the more dominant personality, glibly validating whatever academic anti–male chauvinism the nerdier Erdely suggests.
The bigger picture is that we live in a culture where a liberal Jewish feminist journalist like Erdely is paid well to vilify as haters those she hates, and is seldom asked to recognize that she’s projecting her own racist animus upon the victims of her bigotry such as Eramo and Phi Kappa Psi.
Here’s the key thing to remember about the Haven Monahan hoax because of how much light it sheds upon Hillary Clinton’s America: Virtually every single professional journalist in the country believed (or at least submitted to) the Erdely-Coakley bad craziness.
