Money Talks

How do people really feel about things? Well, if money talks, then people feel very differently than their feelings are portrayed in the media. Over the weekend Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran committed the horrifying sin of (gasp) using the word slut ever. When heckled, Duran responded "shut up faggot".
He had to do the perp news conference, apologize for the emotional deaths of billions and was suspended for 2 days. He was ripped in the news here, on sports talk radio here, nationally and the main theme was trade him, he is a terrible person, excalty why he'll never be a leader, etc.. Yup, leads the majors in doubles and triples, but he said a naughty word so get rid of him.
If money talks, these people are the outliers and not fans of baseball. This unknown guy just set the MLB daily sales record for jersey sales. Used to be Shohei, for the obvious reason that he is the best player and unique. Now it's the homophobe who needs to be traded. Money talks the truth and the news lies.
