[edit] Error in article about William Fitts Ryan

Looking at this article I find that it mistakenly says that William Fitts Ryan (Congressman from NY) coined the phrase "blaming the victim." The author of the article confuses him with another William Ryan, a Professor of Psychology at Boston College, who wrote a book entitled BLAMING THE VICTIM, which popularized the phrase. 75.34.177.95 18:29, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Sentence removed. Good catch. Simon12 05:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
