Big Ben in trouble again

Talk about the Ben Roethlisberger sexual assault story? OK, if you twist my arm... (Photo: Everyjoe.com)
It’s another ugly story from the world of sports involving sexual assault, and possibly mental illness. Why coverage has been this late to develop is because there is racial bias in media coverage. Ben Roethlisberger is white. If he were black, he’d have been crucified almost immediately. That’s the truth, no matter how much the media denies it. Plus there’s a bias against average Janes vs. superstar male athletes. It’s automatically assumed that the Ben Roethlisberger accuser (Andrea McNulty; see Andrea McNulty photos here) is mentally ill or a gold digger (at least Big Ben’s people are trying to prove the former).
Where’s the truth? We’ll never know for sure
If McNulty has a legitimate case, she deserves justice. However, she isn’t filing a criminal case. She’s filing a civil case against the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback. Why is that?
According to Yahoo! Sports by way of the Associated Press, McNulty feared her employer at the time (Harrah’s) would take Ben’s side and fire her. Then she wouldn’t be eligible to receive Pay day loans or secured loans. The incident between herself and Roethlisberger is said to have occurred at the Harrah’s in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Vario us reports (including TMZ) indicate that Roethlisberger has acknowledged having “consensual” sex with McNulty. ... click here to read the rest of the article titled "Ben Roethlisberger's Accuser is Andrea McNulty"
