With the popularity of social media and the access to instant information, everyone wants to be first. In the race to be the first to break a story, a lot of times misinformation gets passed on as facts a lot of the time.

While I don't agree with it, I'd rather get accurate information later than inaccurate information immediately, that doesn't seem to be the common thought process among the masses.

I have to think a few doses of public humiliation would go a long way in cleaning up some of the nonsense.  But ESPN would never do that beacuse the current status quo is probably of their making, or at least exactly what they demand.
