I'm not going to defend anything, predict anything, or assume anything about any of this on the day it happens, but only on a slow news day does this get much traction and only because of the connection to deaths of animals. However, this doesn't strike me as a slow news day. It would take a mass shooting to get near the top of the page or news website. As far as the sport being dirty, most people outside the sport either already thought that or don't care.
