Last week I started reporting on this lawsuit, which had been covered (and debated) everywhere.
A few days after I sent some follow-up questions to the producer (through his lawyer), the musician withdrew his own lawsuit.

Last week was a big one for young journalists at RS. We announced the return of the Rolling Stone College Journalism Awards. RS also teamed up with @Princeton and published a series of articles on an African burial ground in Key West, Florida, and how the legacy of slavery still reverberates through the island community and beyond. The kids are more than all right, they are inspiring. Give a read.
