Lest you think I am exaggerating in the headline, let me assure you that I am taking no dramatic license here. I mean every word. The "news" media, including sports "journalists", are committing EVIL with regard to Rick Patino.
First, do you agree that blackmail and extortion are evil things? What about aiding and abetting blackmail and extortion, and treating a person CHARGED with blackmail and extortion as a credible person? If you believe those things, then you must believe that ESPN, the "Anti-American, Despicable Associated Press", Yahoo News, and a good portion of the media is this country are involved in evil. I can attest personally to ESPN and the despicable AP (Will Graves--who, yes, I am accusing of being an evil person).
Let us go back. Seven months or so ago Rick Pation went to the authorities (federal, I think) and alerted them to a woman trying to blackmail him, and extort money from him. That woman has now been charged with blackmail and extortion. This is not a "scandal". This is Rick Patino coming forth as a WITNESS, and complaining party--a public spirited person--to bring a blackmailer to justice. So where is the "scandal". Well, it is mainly in the minds of evil persons in the media, who are acting like extortion and blackmail are perfectly acceptable things for them to aid and encourage. For there to be any "scandal", you have to assume that it is a "sex scandal" for a basketball coach to commit adultery (which Patino has admitted). See the first entry today on Ted Kennedy and Mary Jo Kopechne, and realize that Rick Patino is being subjected to more media harassment for REPORTING A CRIME, and merely committing adultery, than Ted Kennedy suffered for KILLING A GIRL. Yes, whether leftists (most are) or not, these media people are HYPOCRITES of a magnitude beyond belief. And they are evil people who are doing their best to make sure that the next blackmailer or extortionist is successful--ESPECIALLY if the allegations of the extortionist are FALSE.
What was the extortion? Well, that is where the mostly leftist mainstream media, which includes ESPN, turns evil. Some time ago (I think years) Rick Patino had a one night stand with a woman. Again, is this a "sex scandal"? In what universe, when Ted Kennedy can be seriously considered by so many for President--with BOTH "sex scandals" AND killing a girl. How many coaches have committed adultery? I would guess more than half.
The woman, however, went to Patino and demanded a lot of money. Now at some point he gave her a little money (like $3000). That was the frist EVIL of which I became aware. The media reported this money was for an abortion . Patino says it was for a doctor. Aside from it all being speculation (and no one is more anti-abortion than I am), abortion is LEGAL in this country The breathless headline on Yahoo News, probably from the despicable AP, acted like Patino had killed a girl (this from people who FAVOR abortion--I guarantee you). Pp[s!!! I forgot. If you kill a girl, and you are Ted Kennedy, it is fine. If lyou are Rick Patino, you are treated like the criminal when you are the VICTIM. How is that for encouraging a blackmailer and extortionist, who has threatened to make a man's life a living hell (obviously knowing today's mainstream media). Wait. It gets better (or worse).
This woman asked Pation for a LOT of money toward the end of last year. She threatened, as stated, to make his life a "living hell" by accusing him of rape, and generally going public with all kinds of allegations (again, obviously confident that our mainstream media will aid and abet blackmailers and extortionists at every opportunity). She obviously thought Pation would be familiar with our mainstream media, as well. You might remember that BEFORE the mainstream media turned on prosecutor Nifong in the Duke rape case, they were perfectly willing to turn the life of the accused Duke players into a living hell based on SPECULATION and "trial by media".
Well, Patino went to the authorities. The woman made good on her threat to accuse him of rape, and who knows what else. Firt it was just an ordinary blackmail case. Private (as it should have been--at least until the trial). If you don't treat this as private, until the trial, you are definitely ENCOURAGING BLACKMAIL BASED ON FALSE ALLEGATIONS. At most, you should factually present any defense that the woman is asserting. Remember, conduct of Patino is NOT--I repeat, NOT--a defense blackmail and extortion. Did I mention that Patino was NOT even charged with a crime. The allegations of the blackmailer were deemed not to be credible by the authorities (in contrast to Nifong). Thus, there are not even any outstanding ACCUSATIONS against Patino, other than the admitted sex (really of mo, or minor, importance in comparison to the extortion charge--not worth encouraging blackmail by making any kind of big deal about it).
But, of course, the media did make a big deal about it. They acted like Pation was the ACCUSED, and subjected his family to unmerciful publicity. They harasses the University of Louisville. They did everything possible to DESTROY PATIONO'S LIFE--to make his life "pure hell". Note that this is exactly what the blackmailer wanted. . I ACCUSE. I accuse the mainstreams media, including ESPN, the despicable AP, and the rest of AID AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO BLACKMAILERS EVERYWHERE. The "allegations" of the blackmailer were taken as if they were credible allegations against Pation--including the allegation of "non-consensual" sex (media weasal word used lby evil people). The substances of the blackmailing woman's "still awaiting trial on felony charges) "interview" with the police was reported as "news". The whole thing became a "sex scandal" with lPATINO AS THE ACCUSED. You just don't get any more evil than this.
Well, Patino had enough. He was told by everybody to keep quiet until after the trial (not HIS trial, since he is not charged with anything, but HER trial). But today (Inexplicable, really, and maybe based on one of those media requests for information), the police released the video of thewoman's00tge DISCREDITED woman's) interview with the police--where she made all of those accusations against Patino. You guessed it (realizing by now how EVIL these people are). These were the SAME allegations that had already been aired was to much by the evil mainstream media--including sports "journalists". Well, the media treated the released video as NEWS (evil people that they are), and acted like it was a new development in the "sex scandal" involving Patino. It is splashed all over the media again--every allegation as if Patino is being accused of something. Patino went ballistic.
He had a "news" conference today to AGAIN label the video allegations as lies (which is not just his opinion, but the opinion of people who have charged him with no crime). He said that the MEDIA was making his life "pure hell", as the blackmailer had predicted they would. If you wanted to lay out how to encourage blackmail and extortion, you could not do any better than the mainstream media has done in this case.
Let us go to the videotape of the truly evil people at ESPN--an evil network which this blog has previously recommended you boycott, except fro live sports events--myself, I only watched this specifically to see Patino's "news" conference replayed, which I did). What was the reaction of the evil woman on ESPN? I can't make this stuff up. She put up a "timeline" purporting to show essentially the "downfall" (not her word, but the clear implication of what she said) of Patino since his "high water" mark in the NCAA basketball tournament in March. The next to last item on this "timeline" (people just don't get any more evil than this--not talking about Patino) was "Patino CLAIMS sex was consensual". Say what? Patino is not accused of anything. His "claim" was ACCEPTED by the authorities, and his blackmailer was deemed not to be a credible person. I am livid over this. It will be a cold daly in Hell before I even surf ESPN again. I amy be foreced to view live events there, but I will not pay any attention to ESPN people. It is an evil network with evil people working there.
You want to know what the last item on the "timeline" was? I am glad you asked. The last item, AFTER the item suggesting Patino only "claimed" the sex was consensual, was: "Patino admits sex with woman." Say what? That was a good trick. How did he previously "claim" the sex was consensual, without admitting sex? These are terrible people (on ESPN) . I think they are worse than the blackmailer, and Patino is not even close to being in their class (from all evidence).
Now let us go to the evil Will Graves, and the evil people at the Associated Press (given a forum by the evil people at Yahoo News). This is the despicable lead paragraph from the despicable AP story by Will Graves:
"Louisville coach Rick Pitino said Wednesday a sex scandal involving a woman accused of trying to extort millions from him has been “pure hell” for his family, fuming that newly released video of her police interview revived her “total fabrication.”
I saw the press conference. The above is an EVIL LIE. The purpose of Patino's press conference was NOT to suggest that the "sex scandal" was "pure hell". The purpose of the press conference was to ATTACK THE MEDIA for making his life a pure hell--spreading FALSE allegations of a blackmailer time and time again. Yes, Pation admitted again that he made a mistake having sex with the blackmailer, but he made clear that the consequences of the sex (bad as that was for his wife and family) were not the "pure hell" of the media fascination with spreading the discredited allegations of a blackmailer again and again. I state again that I fail to see where this is even a "sex scandal", unless you label every case of adultery (Ted Kennedy anyone?) as a "sex scandal". This is a case of blackmail and extortion. The sex is merely what gave rise to the blackmail and extortion--where Patino did the right thing and cooperated with the authorities (and evidently his university--disclosing everything there and to his wife).
The despicable AP is composed of despicable people. Will Graves is despicable. The AP headline, and the Yahoo News version of that headline, screamed that "Patino says sex scandal pure hell". I tell you. I saw the press conference. That headline is an evil lie by evil people (and I include the people at Yahoo News).
No. I did not see the "coverage" elsewhere, other than to hear Patino's description of how it seemed to be universal in the mainstream media--even breaking into Kennedy coverage for "breaking news" treatment of a blackmailer's smear of Patino. That may well mean it was on Fox News, as well as other mainstream news outlets, although I don't know that. I have said before that Fox News, especially on this type of smear of people in the media, is part of the problem and not part of the solution. I don't care who has spread this. It is evil stuff, and you should know that you have been involved in evil.
