The publication issued a formal retraction regarding those unfair claims against P!nk. We pushed back against the blame game and forced them to walk it back. Keep watching for biased media reports and keep calling them out when they get it wrong.

\"So it\'s not like we need phony posers like Pink to encourage young people to drink. She should be ashamed of herself for building her rocker-chick credentials on the backs - or livers - of impressionable young fans. What ever happened to being a lady Whatever happened to pitying the drunk girl who makes a fool of herself and passes out \" This is quoted from a recent NY Post article named \"When Little Girls Drink\" if that quote hasnt already gotten you heated up you should read what other crazy things they accuse P!nk of. This journalist is pointing their finger at P!nk and accusing her of all the mishaps of todays \"impressionable\" youth. Anyone with common sense knows that just because teens arent adults, doesnt mean that we have to have someone think for us. A sense of right and wrong goes along with human nature, and P!nk isnt responsible for her fans and other teens, she is responsible for her own actions. Dont blame P!nk, blame the parents, and society.

The media continues to look for an easy target instead of addressing the real issues at home. Go to the comment section of that original article and post a link to this petition to set the record straight. Email the editorial desk at the paper and demand they stop scapegoating artists for the failures of parenting.

This article is such a joke. She is a performer not a babysitter. Leave her alone.

People love to blame celebrities instead of doing their own jobs as parents. Ridiculous.
