Apparently ESPN's Outside the Lines did a hit piece on Greg Hardy this morning

Saying "the law has spoken" is a fundamental misunderstanding of North Carolina law. If a jury unanimously convicts him, fine, suspend him. That hasn't happened though.

 

Yet how many people get a jury trial? Does the guy driving down to the game busted with a bag of weed get a jury trial? The guy who drives drunk doesnt get a jury trial, nor the guy caught drag racing on the interstate.

 

Point is, the law is handed out and accepted in MANY cases when a jury is not present. To say that Hardy isn't guilty until tried by his peers is the same as saying everyone else is not guilty until determined by their peers.

 

Yet we both know that doesnt happen..and as I said, right or wrong..the man was convicted in a court of law. The press sees that, which I believe is the reason why his name keeps coming up

I am so tried of hearing about this .. but its like a car wreck I can not look away. It's the media that is running this into the ground. I did a scroll through my facebook and I have people on my facebook all across the country because I am part of a national organization and we friend each other. There was NOTHING not one post about this on my facebook page.

This is what happens when the Copy/Paste media goes into overdrive.

 

On a side note, one of our local TV stations isn't even watching the Cam press conference and is just repeating the ESPN false storyline that Cam only answered questions with the Donkey Kong line.  (in case you don't know he said it 5 times and answered 22 other questions fully)
