Why aren’t big media companies reporting on this Josh Giddey rape situation? (alien.top)

Allegations or not, we’re talking about a potentially serious crime. Yet, none of the big media outlets are reporting on it. Do we know why? I can’t help but thinking about other NBA player allegations and it being big news on ESPN or Fox Sports etc. what is the difference? Can’t help but imagining if this was a non white player what the media would be doing here. Can anybody give any other reason as to why this may be?

If you call someone a pedo and a rapist and allude to it and it’s not true you get bent over hard in court, a single Twitter account making a claim with no proof is not nearly enough, and those companies would get obliterated in court and would lose a gigantic sum of money all the dude would have to say is he’s too traumatized to play in the nba and they’d have to pay like potential income for his entire career plus pain and suffering the potential damages would be like astronomical
