URGENT - Janay Rice Statement (actual headline)
CNN ^ | Sept. 9, 2014

Posted on 09/09/2014 6:54:50 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

(CNN) -- Janay Rice, wife of suspended NFL player Ray Rice who was released by the Baltimore Ravens, apparently posted a statement Tuesday on Instagram calling the situation a "nightmare." "To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is a horrific (sic)," she wrote. The actions against Ray Rice were taken Monday after a video surfaced showing him knocking her out with a punch in February. The Instagram post, reported by various media, appeared to be authentic.

What ratings boost is she talking about...the MSM? The NFL certainly has no problem with ratings.

She should just tell everyone they were just goofing around, play-acting, role playing or something.

I personally think FOX has worn this story out. Really, I don't care what he did. I agree he's a slimeball for hitting a woman, and I never would. I agree someone needs to kick his butt. But I don't care. It goes on every day in all aspects of life. Suspending him indefinitely and firing him is a crime. Unless our society is ready to fire and suspend EVERYONE guilty of domestic violence..... That's just my opinion.

But yeah... FOX needs to LET IT GO....

This whole incident reminds me of how the Obama administration treats the American people and how the American people react to the treatment they receive.

I despise the Ravens BUT didn’t we already know that he knocked the hell out of her and the NFL responded, along with the Ravens, a month ago? Whether or not you believe the punishment then was too much or too little, I think it’s ridiculous to pile on at this point just because you SAW what you already knew. Its all about the NFL/Ravens saving face. In no way, shape or form do I condone what Rice did, its horrific; the act is the same now as it was a month ago.

I think she’s talking about the media in general..probably ESPN specifically. She’s essentially saying everyone is playing the video, hyping it up to boost viewership/internet views, etc - while she, the victim, has to relive it over and over. She also referred to being isolated now because it’s the world vs her husband.

Interesting move on her/their part. It is easy to paint her as having battered wife syndrome and standing by her man regardless, but it’s possible they dealt with this very bad situation which could well be a very bad isolated event and were working to move on. He also could be a serial abuser. I have not info either way, but I am so tired of the mob rule in our country automatically painting a guy like this as something with no further evidence. This video was dramatically a worst case scenario in terms of what he did in that elevator, but we know nothing about his conduct before this event or why it got to that point.

Yep...do you think she would sing a different tune if RR worked at a $15/hour job at Mickie D’s?
