We've seen several big name schools in the news for sexual assaults, abduction, and murder.

1. Two things...

1. The link to Fox leads to "Page Not Found"

2. Fox as a source.

3. Looks like York was right.

York College is no longer listed among the most dangerous campuses in the country, after a California-based data firm admitted to an error in its research.

In fact, none of the 25 schools on the first list belonged there, according to FindTheBest.com.

Following a PennLive story yesterday, the company issued an apology and retraction and revised the study, which now puts three other Pennsylvania institutions among the most dangerous in the country.

"We've identified an error in the analysis of the data used in this report, which culminated in an incorrect ranking of dangerous colleges in the United States," said spokeswoman Hillary Foss. "We sincerely apologize for any confusion and inconvenience this data issue has caused."

4. On a completely anecdotal level.

A co-worker's son was stabbed walking to his dorm room at Temple in Philly.

He had a full recovery.

5. typical Fox 'news'......

post a completely bullshit story, get called out, and apologize. Why anyone would use Fox news as a 'source' (or anything Fox named as a source) of anything other than derision and ridicule is beyond me.
