A jury has determined that Rolling Stone, its publisher and one of its authors are liable for defamation with malice when they published their now-retracted article about a gang rape at the University of Virginia.
NBC 29 reports that Sabrina Rubin Erdely, the author of the story, was found liable on six claims, while the magazine was found liable on three. Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner was also found liable on three claims.
