I've been reading that things were never truly cleared up, but even just the way they dragged her through the press—and how Bryant's legal defense basically argued she was "sleeping with someone else" a day later—is just pathetic. But honestly, isn't that just a symptom of a larger societal issue? You've got these massive superstars who act like the world revolves around them and they can do whatever they want to whoever they want, you've got young women caught in these impossible situations, and then you have the media and the public who instinctively take the celebrity's side because, frankly, they don't give a damn. Not to mention the lawyers who will tear anyone apart just to settle a lawsuit. It’s the exact same dynamic we’re seeing with Ronaldo right now. It's pretty disgusting when you think about it. That said, it doesn't change the fact that it's tragic how Bryant and his daughter passed away, nor does it erase the fact that he was a legend on the court.
Btw, not all the media outlets forgot, but The Washington Post suspended their reporter just because she posted about it on Twitter after Bryant died.
