Redskins Offseason Thread

[MTK]

Women forced into uncomfortable situations when involved with men with power, what a shocker. Anyone questioning the possibility of this story being legitimate is seriously delusional.

Not a stretch to think this could blow up in the NFL’s face, I guarantee behind the scenes they are scrambling to get ahead of it.

Im certainly questioning the facts and not the possibility. Conveniently, stories are now appearing during the me too movement that will attempt to take advantage of this electric environment. This happens. Exaggeration happens so we can put this in a box and sell it as something else (my money is clearly here).

Its a clear fact the NYT has a major bone to pick over a fucking name. There is an agenda with past articles as proof. Lets not dismiss this fact.

Im positive the front office is freaking out because of me too movement. I expect a scapegoat. If there was something done inappropriately, by all means the org should take responsibility.....

I agree. If they were acting inappropriately, punishment is deserved. Whether or not that's the case is not up to me to decide.

Up until this morning, I was right there with you, but two of the cheerleaders present at the event told a different story on the Today Show

It is entirely possible that people can witness the same events and have completely different perceptions about what happened. Its also possible that one side or the other is being less than truthful.

I'm definitely more skeptical now than I was when the story was first reported. Bruce said they were doing an investigation. Given the scrutiny this type of story generally produces, I'm hopeful it will be a thorough one and more information will be forthcoming in the future.

The media knows getting an quick, emotional response serves them best than laying out an even story where the readers decides. Post-2000 Journalism.

NYT is fully taking advantage of the me too movement environment.
