Rolling Stone magazine apologized April 5 and officially retracted an article about an alleged gang rape at the University of Virginia, and an independent review said the article may cast doubt on future rape accusations.

The magazine took the action after receiving a report from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism on the editorial process that led to the article. The report called the article a “story of journalistic failure that was avoidable.”
