Did the jury weigh in on the specific question of whether NY's legal
definition of 'rape' had been met, or was it an instruction to them?

 

I'm content to let Big Daddy go down in the history books as an
adjudicated sexual abuser instead of a convicted rapist. Because that's
what happened, there's no wiggling out of it by his apologists.

 As super70s is relying on discussing facts as accurately reported, he's
unemployable as a member of the mainstream media. Too bad George
Stephanopolous chose to ignore the most basic tenets of journalism; he'd
have saved his employer $15 million.

He made a sincere (and for all practical purposes, piddling) error.  I'm not sure why a simple retraction was judged insufficient.
