A student website is apologising for the contents of an article on one night stands. CollegeTimes.ie says it never intended to offend any of its readers by publishing the "One Night Stand Guide For Him" article. The item has now been deleted from the website.
CollegeTimes.ie - which describes itself as a national varsity website for good humoured Irish students and young adults - published an article giving advice on one night stands.
The piece entitled "One Night Stand Guide For Him has been strongly criticised on social media sites including Twitter and Facebook. The contents included a photograph of convicted murdered and rapist Josef Fritzl.
In a statement CollegeTimes.ie says the article was written by a woman to highlight - in a satirical fashion - behaviours that occur commonly within our society. It adds the that piece was based on the observations of a student.
The website has deleted the article this morning and says it never intended to offend any of its readers.
CollegeTimes.ie is also apologising to soft drink brand 7up for what it says was a technical failure that allowed advertisements for the brand to appear alongside the article.
It says it has now removed the brand from the particular section and would like to make it clear that 7up would never be associated with content of this type.
