Oso planning to go pro
"And what evidence have you found that she made it up?" interesting that the media ran with this story without thoroughly checking it out...umm, doing "journalism" thingsBYU and it's investigation(S) have found no corroborating evidence, video, audio or witnesses. one would think something like this would have stuck out a little. someone screaming the "N" throughout the match? maybe even a guilty mind sitting next to the alleged racist? MSNBC, CNN and ALL the rest have essentially stopped reporting on itso now, the evidence needed that she made it up or not really should fall back onto the accuser(s) tamu, i really wish none of this happened. but true or false claims of anything volatile or inappropriate need to be addressed so they diminish the chances of them continuing to occur. if rachel richardson's accusations continue to be proven to be untrue, it dilutes the illicit actions that do actually occur
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Perhaps we should wait for all the facts to come out?
Actual hard facts can be really inconvenient for those promoting an agenda, and have no interest in whether the charges are true or not.Jesse Smolette?Duke Lacrosse?Oberlin College hoax ( at least it cost Oberlin $36 million----hardly enough IMO---to demonstrate their wokeness based on a story that was entirely fabricated).I agree. Wait for all the facts. But for some, the allegation is "the story", not the veracity of the allegation.
I've seen enough posts from rocket about pizzagate and hunters laptop to know that he doesn't actually care about waiting for all the facts to come out. And wait for the facts to come out before doing what exactly?
…ahhhhhh but wade tomu the media covered up pizzagate for the “big guy” maybe don’t watch…msdnc or cnn and Brad seltzer all the time and Do research did u know seth rich was on hunters lab top???????????? and now he’s dead like the queen because china unleeshed the wuhan flu to hurt president trump in the rigged election were nursing “home” people all voted democrat cuz of the italy satellites
Before destroying people's reputation, or a school's reputation, or a business' reputation. Are you saying it's no big whoop what Duke University in 2006 did to these LaCrosse players ? Before knowing a single fact about what actually happened? Did even one faculty member at Duke or their president at the time sincerely apologize to these kids? Did Jesse Jackson? Wait for the facts to come out. Oberlin also made complete asses out of themselves and the result was paying a bakery 36 mill. Is it too much to ask to wait for information before forming a narrative?
you can't tell me that if someone was racially heckling a player throughout the match, or even a portion of it, that SOMEONE wouldn't come forward to ID the perp? not to mention, someone wouldn't tell this person to stfu or get a person of authority? if i were sitting next to someone screaming out racial crap, i know i would have a word or three...it would (and should) be embarrassing to the host school to not to do something
"pizzagate"?? refresh my "old man" memory pleasehunters laptop-facts? bwhahahahaha,holy schnikees, but sorry can't step into that one...rocky would love to get rid of a meat lovin,rabble rousing, scoop contrarian teddy bear...againbut back to volleyball...not naming the innocent person who was banned, then un-banned was the only smart thing to come out of all of this. i'm sure his/her name is out there however. you can't tell me that if someone was racially heckling a player throughout the match, or even a portion of it, that SOMEONE wouldn't come forward to ID the perp? not to mention, someone wouldn't tell this person to stfu or get a person of authority? if i were sitting next to someone screaming out racial crap, i know i would have a word or three...it would (and should) be embarrassing to the host school to not to do something
1. The allegation itself is newsworthy. 2. Reporting it as fact would be irresponsible. 3. Follow up to show that the allegation may not have occurred doesn’t mean “the media” engaged in #2. Why is this so hard?
The majority of the media is "full of #2" and has been for decades.
I mean, if you are going to use this topic as a continuation of your grievance, and not actually discuss the facts in question, that is up to you.But people won't really take you seriously.
Just what facts are "in question"?? That's the problem. BYU undertook an extensive investigation, and found NO FACTS to support the ALLEGATION. Whether or not the incident occurred is not a "fact" in dispute. The development of underlying "facts" ( or not) will then either prove or disprove the allegation..What's so tough about that?
So you agree that is acceptable for the media to report that an allegation was made, correct?Whose reputation was ruined by the duke volleyball allegation? I could have missed it but I haven't seen the accused named anywhere.Also, keep in mind that the Duke LAX players were not found innocent. That is a misconception. The prosecutor in that case was doing unethical and illegal things to try and make his case, but that doesn't mean that the defendants were innocent. It also doesn't mean that they were guilty. The reality is, in cases like this, it's very rare that all the facts ever come out.
The media should have reported the allegation. Show me where I said otherwise!And good for BYU conducting the investigation. They have indirectly been accused of something here and I'm certain they want to get to the bottom of this more than anyone.But you do understand I hope that it is the proponent of an allegation or statement that has the burden of proving that the allegation has a basis in fact. BYU wants to flush out the facts here but the onus is not on them to prove or disprove anything.This thing will either proceed on its merits and the culprit will be identified and punished or it will die for lack of evidence..
