Rolling Stone found liable in $7.5M defamation lawsuit

"A federal jury has found that Rolling Stone magazine and writer Sabrina Erdely defamed a former University of Virginia associate dean in a since-retracted story about campus rape.
It took the jury three days of deliberations to decide that Erdely should be liable for defamation, with actual malice, for her â€œA Rape on Campusâ€ feature story, which has since been discredited.
Rolling Stone magazine and Wenner Media are also responsible for defaming former UVA associate dean Nicole Eramo, jurors decided."
