After ESPN Outside The Lines put out an article examining the program-wide sexual assault cover-up from the Michigan State Athletic Department, Graham Crouch, a writer for the Lansing State Jouranl, has this thoughtless tweet:
One thing the ESPN reports lacks is comparative context. Is what's gone on at MSU – beyond Nassar – different from other major universities?

Michigan’s Grant Newsome reply to Crouch regarding :
Well Graham, I’ve never sexually assaulted someone. But I can safely assume our coach and school would have had a stronger response than making me talk with my mother. https://t.co/ZkMpZzIpQq

Here’s the quote from the article Newsome is referencing:
“The attorney told her how Dantonio, the football coach, had dealt with a sexual assault accusation against one of his players: He had the player talk to his mother about what he had done.”
Grant Perry went through the legal process and was suspended by Coach, twice actually. But I’ll pass along your regards.
