You will not freaking believe the one group that Rolling Stone writer Sabrina Erdely DID NOT apologize to

Here’s the apology Rolling Stone’s Sabrina Erdely is offering up after getting nuked by the Columbia School of Journalism’s report on the multiple errors made at the publication during the reporting of its now retracted story on rape at a UVA fraternity house (emphasis ours):

“The past few months, since my Rolling Stone article “A Rape on Campus” was first called into question, have been among the most painful of my life. Reading the Columbia account of the mistakes and misjudgments in my reporting was a brutal and humbling experience. I want to offer my deepest apologies: to Rolling Stone’s readers, to my Rolling Stone editors and colleagues, to the U.V.A. community, and to any victims of sexual assault who may feel fearful as a result of my article.

“Over my 20 years of working as an investigative journalist — including at Rolling Stone, a magazine I grew up loving and am honored to work for — I have often dealt with sensitive topics and sources. In writing each of these stories I must weigh my compassion against my journalistic duty to find the truth. However, in the case of Jackie and her account of her traumatic rape, I did not go far enough to verify her story. I allowed my concern for Jackie’s well-being, my fear of re-traumatizing her, and my confidence in her credibility to take the place of more questioning and more facts. These are mistakes I will not make again.

“Reporting on rape has unique challenges, but the journalist still has the responsibility to get it right. I hope that my mistakes in reporting this story do not silence the voices of victims that need to be heard.”

Notice she DID NOT apologize directly to the members of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house who were falsely accused of rape in her article:
