Jameis Winston critics can't convict top NFL draft pick of rape

"Zeitgeist" means the prevailing cultural mood of an era. I hate using such $3 words as much as I hate defending Jameis Winston, but "Morning Joe" leaves me no choice.

MSNBC's morning show convicted Winston of rape on Monday. The opinion was based on "The Hunting Ground," a movie that hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski apparently saw during the weekend.

"It's impossible to watch her, it's impossible to watch her parents, it's impossible to look at the events without looking at Winston and looking at the people in Tallahassee who let this young girl down. Who was shoved into the bathroom and her face shoved into the floor and raped and nobody, nobody supported her in Tallahassee because they had a national championship to win," Scarborough said.
