The magazine turned on Dave Chappelle, arguably the greatest stand-up performer of his time, for daring to tell jokes about the trans community. It’s no wonder country star John Rich refused to help the magazine on an upcoming feature tied to singer Oliver Anthony.

Except Rich was far less polite about it.

The singer shared his response to Rolling Stone regarding an upcoming feature story on the year’s most unlikely success story.

That’s Anthony, the Virginia crooner who shocked the music industry when his “Rich Men North of Richmond” became a number one smash.

Here’s my quote: “When Rolling Stone glamorized the Boston bomber, they lost all
credibility as a serious publication. I’d rather do an interview with the Cartoon Network.”

Cartoon Network probably has more viewers than RS has readers.

Rolling Stone and journalist found guilty over false Virginia rape story.

 An investigation found numerous flaws in Sabrina Rubin Erdely's story
Rolling Stone magazine and a journalist have been found guilty of defamation over a false article about a gang rape at the University of Virginia.

The $7.5m (£6m) lawsuit was brought by Nicole Eramo, an associate dean from the university, who said the article had cast her as the "chief villain".

The 2014 article, written by Sabrina Rubin Erdely, included the rape claim of an unidentified female student.

The magazine retracted the article in April 2015, citing inconsistencies.

The 9,000-word article, entitled A Rape on Campus, centred on the testimony of a student, referred to as "Jackie", who claimed to have been gang raped at a party held at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity's house in 2012.
