Hold on! Did The View’s Sunny Hostin give a solid opinion on the Cornell seven? Yes, she did — a classic case of a broken clock being right twice a day. Hostin, known as patient zero for a lot of dumb takes on this insufferable program, pointed out that much of the reporting on this case is inaccurate, that a rush to judgment shouldn’t be made, and that there’s a lot to unpack. She’s not wrong.
The case involves a 2024 gang rape allegation at the school, where a now-former female student alleges she was drugged and raped at a fraternity. The problem is that the initial investigation didn’t turn up anything. She also said that, at the time, it was consensual. Now, a new civil suit has been filed, and the Internet is running wild:

And while this is something we have to take very seriously, there is no way according to her statement in 2024 that any prosecutor would have brought this court case."
The story Cornell's Jane Doe initially told police was not that seven fraternity brothers forcibly drugged and gang-raped her for hours.

Well done, Sunny. We know this won’t last, but for now, in this case, that’s the right take.
Joy Behar needed to take a chill pill, though.
Joy Behar ridiculously suggests that rapists are never punished and men can just rape with no worry of consequences: "They are - seem to be free to do whatever harm they want to do on girls."

This is such nonsense. There are literally laws against it and men rightfully in prison… pic.twitter.com/8CaF1pfD4k
