On Tuesday, I published an article discussing the media coverage when it came to the suspension of Jameis Winston. The article was to point out how some people can be easily swayed by words they read.
In it, there were links to articles from Tampa Bay Times columnist Tom Jones that referenced Ben Roethlisberger as being forgiven by society and ranked as a Top 3 quarterback. Those were referenced to provide examples of how people can base their opinions or judgments on an athlete off of what they read.
This is happening with Winston.
