Changing Identities of Troubled Players
- Share via
The extreme prejudice shown by The Times’ sports staff has never been more clearly demonstrated than last week. When two football players who were denied admission by USC were arrested on charges of grand theft auto, they were described as “two former USC recruits.” When they were exonerated, The Times referred to them as “El Camino football players.”
Pleasing the Notre Dame sports editor has taken precedence over journalistic integrity.
