Sorority Girl Email: Michael Shannon Reads 'Deranged' Email In New NSFW Video [VIDEO]

An email rant by Rebecca Martinson, a junior at the University of Maryland and member of the Delta Gamma sorority, has gone viral after being posted on Gawker last week. The Gawker post described the email as "the most deranged sorority girl email you will ever read." Now Michael Shannon, the Academy Award-nominated actor best known for his roles in "Revolutionary Road" and "Boardwalk Empire," has done a dramatic reading of it.

Martinson's email has gained notoriety as a profanity-laced missive to fellow sisters at Delta Gamma whose behavior during a Greek Week activity involving a University of Maryland fraternity did not meet Martinson's liking. The email opens with a disclaimer in which Martinson warns that what follows will be a "rough f***ing ride". She then berates the Delta Gamma chapter for their apparent ineptitude in establishing warm relations with the fraternity and for committing a series of faux pas when appearing together with their chapter sisters at parties and athletic events. In one of the most widely cited moments, she tells her sisters she will "c*** punt" them if they don't stop being "so f***king boring" and "so f***ing awkward."

"News flash you stupid c***s," Martinson wrote. "FRATS DON'T LIKE BORING SORORITIES."

The University of Maryland student has since resigned from the sorority after fallout from the email. She also deleted her Twitter account. However, Scallywag and Vagabond has preserved a series of tweets made earlier from her account which refer derisively to Mexicans, Asians, gays, and the elderly.

The Delta Gamma sorority wrote on its Facebook page that "the tone and content of the email was highly inappropriate and unacceptable by any standard. No matter who released it to the public or how it reached such a mass audience, the email content should not reflect on any sorority woman in general or any fraternal organization at large."

In a CNN article about the viral email, Michael Fertik, the founder and CEO of Reputation.com -- a California company which offers online reputation management services - said that the letter "will stick with her for a long, long time -- and it will likely color how peers, future employers, grad school admissions officers, etc., regard her as a person. She's going to have to work very hard to show that she's taken this experience and used it to grow into a more mature, thoughtful, tolerant and compassionate person."
