Why would they think that? Matt Taibbi is well-known around here.

Edit: Rolling Stone did take a credibility hit after Sabrina Rubin Erdley came clean about manufacturing parts of her college campus rape story, but that’s the only thing that comes to mind when I think about RS and journalistic credibility.

Does anyone under 80 think that?

A few people on HN get stuck on the debunked gang rape story, and feel that it destroys any credibility Rolling Stone had. (I'm not one of those people.)

Thanks for providing the link, I edited my comment to reflect that.

I’m not one of those people either, that had to be embarrassing for them and I’m assuming they changed their editorial practices to avoid such things in the future.

The original article they're complaining about is pretty fair, and IMO, great journalism.

A few UVA alumni likely think that.

Boomers trying to explain 4chan is anything but great journalism.
