    An earlier tweet contained language that presumed the guilt of a suspect who is accused of paying a 16-year-old girl to have sex. He has not yet been tried, and NPR has deleted the tweet.pic.twitter.com/uJWODKm6zw

        I’m confused. What about the original tweet is “language that presumed the guilt...”? Isn’t it just saying what he was arrested for? Is that not what he was arrested for?

        should say "*ALLEGED* sexual assault of a minor", not definitive

        Being arrested for something isn’t ever “definitive” though. To me, there’s no implied definitiveness in “he was arrested for [allegation]”

        "Alleged" isn't enough?

        "Alleged" isn't in the content of the tweet itself, but in the auto-generated link headline, so they took down the tweet. If someone is viewing the tweet without the auto-generated headline, it looks to presume guilt.

        Think about this case. The girl said she was 18 but she was actually 16. We dont know the details, maybe she tried to blackmail him. In any event shes not helping women in general.
