102 Here is how Narrative Journalism works.

1) Make up some fake shit. Just fucking make it up.
2) Accuse the people you made up the fake shit about of being racist, sexist, Islamophobic, homophobic sub-human nazi scum.
3) Seriously, go crazy with 24/7 media on the accusations
4) At this stage, the Right and conservative alt-media will slowly start to unravel all the shit you made up, but it will take them days and weeks during which time you ...

5) Make up some new shit about something else entirely.

If you play it right you can do this indefinitely.

Make up shit, accuse, accuse, accuse, when exposed as a hoax ... just make up some new shit about something else and start all over again.

Narrative Journalism for the win.

113 Jesus, I'm getting confused. We have

1. rape fabulists
2. rape fabulist deniers
3. rape fabulist enablers
4. truth rapists

Ah, Kenyans. Forgot about them.

115 argh. "He was better THAN Eddie..." Seriously, I don't understand the infatuation with Kobain. Secundus @ 91 is probably correct, but it still doesn't make sense. The guy sang and played guitar like shit.

116 re 98: If Barky apologizes to Fidel, what foreign policy landmark will be left for the next Dem President? Bay of Pigs? What difference, at this point, does it make?

118 Thanks Ricardo, but that was a looooong time ago.

The thing that gets me is, there are all sorts of stories that are a hell of a lot more interesting, as well as being more pertinent (because they're, well, true). Why not talk about them?

Rhetorical, of course. Erdeley was fishing for the Next Big Social Justice #WarOnWomen story. She found one that was too good to check, and didn't. Now it's gone off in her face like Ron Jeremy on spanish fly and she's got to do her fucking job before the lawyers finish stropping the flensing knives.

121 Gregg Allman's sister, Annie, played guitar in the restaurant where we had our girls' party tonight.

She even kinda resembles her brother, what with the hair.

Anyhow, she's very talented and quite sweet.

And now, I'm off to bed.

Try to behave (as if) on the ONT.

125 #24 was awesome.
But... the top email says spring 2014. Wasn't the Jackie rape in 2012? Are we talking about the same rape here?

130 My guess would be their reasoning involves a lot of Tragic Misunderstood Voice of his Generation who was Taken Too Young.

Posted by: Secundus at December 19, 2014 09:18 PM

I guess so. The operative word there being "voice", not guitar. Got nothing against Cobain. He was ok, and did fine on guitar. But he didn't stand out in any department, apart from perhaps "particular sound". I'm not a big Eddie fan, but FFS the guy was inhuman on technique, influential squared and had a defining sound... etc etc. I'd rather listen to Johnny Ramone... but I wouldn't try to rate JR ahead of EVH... that's just retarded.

I'm not sure what to make of Clint Eastwood's American Sniper?

I really don't like Bradley Cooper. I used to, but not anymore.

132 "...That's some shoddy journalism Sabrina..."
Posted by: Jason Blair

This is what galls me about this whole RS BS, it's just more prof that the journalism I was once taught is gone. I studied journalism at a small college, and became the Editor in Chief of its student newspaper.

I was taught haughty principles like fact-finding, objectivity, and how to develop a finely-tuned bullshit detector. And to what end?

To give the public enough information so as to permit intelligent people to form opinions based on facts.

But that ship has sailed...into the middle of the Indian Ocean, and sank. Deep.

Every so often I find commentary that reminds me why I'm here.

136 let me say, as someone who is life long classical (lately listening to Beethoven's Missa Solemnis), that Kurt Cobain was an uncommon combination, a talented borderline psychotic. Sometimes almost sounded like he listened to people like Arnold Schoenberg.

Just my opinion.

Posted by: mallfly at December 19, 2014 09:35 PM (zjcTL)

137 OK y'all, I'm out too.

Unrelated to composing? His guitar playing? I will certainly give him another listen as I may have missed something if that's the case. It's the kind of sophistication I would have probably missed.

Posted by: otho at December 19, 2014 09:42 PM (tBSrv)

139 I can't think of a category that Van Halen wouldn't outrank Cobain in, anyway.

Marksmanship?

140 For those of us with eyes seasoned to the ways of words, Erd's article was very ... shady on this point. It was instantly apparent that the admin was quiet on these issues because:

1. some things they weren't allowed to comment on.
2. other things didn't happen so they had no idea how to comment on them.

142 Erdely has some gall, attacking UVA for not giving her information when it was she herself who hid and didn't tell them about Jackie's gang rape.
