The public’s disdain certainly extends to the case of Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis. And it was in evidence throughout the pre-Super Bowl hype, as the media challenged Lewis to explain and to apologize. I’m not so cynical as to believe that all that outrage manifested by journalists represented nothing more than a need to fill broadcast minutes or column inches.
