Episode Transcript
A fifteen year old student at Cape Elizabeth High in Portland, Maine,
just won a free speech case. She admitted that she
wrote a message and stuck it on a school bathroom mirror.
The message, there's a rapist in our school and you
know who it is. Well, people didn't know who it was.
The school rumor mill went into overdrive as school administrators
conducted dozens of interviews to get to the bottom of it.
(00:24):
One boy whose name came up in the rumor mill
stayed home for eight days out of fear for his safety.
Nothing was ever proven about the identity of the alleged
rapists or if there even was a rapist. School administrators
suspended this fifteen year old who started all of this
for three days. She went to court to block the suspension,
(00:46):
claiming she was just raising awareness about sexual assault, you know,
lying and making it up like journalists do. Last week,
a U. S District Court judge granted her temporary restraining order.
He said that if the matter is litigated, should probably win.
The judge said that he understands the school administrator's perspective,
but they don't have cart blanc to tap down the
(01:09):
student's concerns about social justice. So you can't yell fire
at a crowded theater, but you can yell rape in
a crowded school. You can put it on a mirror.
As for those wrongly accused or smeared, too bad, No
social justice for them. Besides their guys. They're guilty anyway, right,

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
