Aaron Hernandez Not Getting Press

Coverage of the Aaron Hernandez trial is conspicuously lacking from ESPN and major news outlets. ESPN ass funneled you stories about Patriots’ deflated footballs yet rarely mentions that the same team used to employ Scarface. The NFL is clearly exerting pressure on its broadcast partners to ignore the case. That would include FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC, and ESPN. If you want to bid on the Superbowl in 2019 sell your integrity and air some stories about Russell Wilson reading bible verses in the child cancer ward. Patriots owner Robert Kraft and coach Bill Belichick are both potential witnesses. If one of them were to testify it would take a heroic exercise in censorship to keep this story sheltered. It’s OJ part II. There’s no hot blonde but a good chance Hernandez offed a guy while in uniform. I’ll look forward to more op-eds about how we need boots on the ground in Syria or additional toppings at Dominos. Maybe even a retrospective on Belichick’s hoodies or Tom Brady’s ass crack. Meanwhile your tight end is a serial murderer and your teenage son has a drinking problem.
