Narrowing My Focus

The most important questions for me to answer/learn more about in my act of public speech are the following:

1. How has this controversy effected Rolling Stone?

2. How has Rolling Stone responded to this controversy?

3. Where, specifically, did Rolling Stone go wrong?

4. Learn more about the specific people involved and their impact on the controversy.

I think that these questions are the most important and interesting questions to answer as I move further along with Project 3 because the controversy only began when Rolling Stone decided to publish the story of Jackie's alleged gang rape at UVA in 2012. Being a journalist major, I want to focus on/learn more about the process, failures, and gray areas, that Rolling Stone faced when writing, publishing, and then retracting Savannah Erdley's story that was meant to be a piece of journalism.
