George Will's incendiary column on sexual assault hasn't just earned him the ire of a slew of readers, pundits and politicians — it's now getting him dropped from newspapers altogether.

On Wednesday, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch posted a note to its readers, saying that Will's syndicated column would no longer run in its pages. The paper was very clear about why this was happening:

The change has been under consideration for several months, but a column published June 5, in which Mr. Will suggested that sexual assault victims on college campuses enjoy a privileged status, made the decision easier. The column was offensive and inaccurate; we apologize for publishing it.
