A 16-year-old girl was stabbed last night at 1024 Kenyon Street NW at about 11 p.m., WJLA reports, and the attack stemmed from a feud between two "girl gangs" who were upset about something one of them posted on a MySpace page, according to D.C.

It would certainly be refreshing to see a report on this story based on the facts: teenage girls are often mean to each other, with or without social networking web sites. more ›
