This is how a convicted rapist was portrayed by @washingtonpost. Include his swimming creds, avoid the word "rape"pic.twitter.com/sJj11s0hFE
For contrast, here's @washingtonpost coverage of other rapes. All three headlines use the word, use mugshots.pic.twitter.com/AqBy8wgsNH

@justkelly_ok@washingtonpost Poindexter systemically raped dozens of people. SYSTEMIC RAPE. Yet you suggest it is because of racial bias? -
@LayCraft I literally provided five other examples. Nice cherry-picking! -
@justkelly_ok The evidence you used to support your point was partially misleading. That is on you not me. -
@LayCraft P.S. "Systemic" doesn't mean what you think it means. -
@justkelly_ok Systematic is what I meant.#autocorrect -
@LayCraft Autocorrect changed your use of both "systemically" and "systemic"? Weird! -
@justkelly_ok It changed "not much" to "not much variety" earlier. It added a whole word. Time to reset the dictionary I guess.#autocorrect - Show more

@DallasWimer Robin, why are you tweeting at me about something totally unrelated in a thread about rape? Shoo. -
@justkelly_ok@DallasWimer if you look at the video it's about crooky hillisry when she was attorney. -
@DallasWimer This thread has nothing to do with Hillary Clinton or the election. So again: why are you tweeting at me? -
@justkelly_ok Yes it is about Hilliary listen too idiot iberal demorcate. You just don't want to hear the truth.

@justkelly_ok@washingtonpost I'm curious if there is a more comparable case of rape by a drunk black student from a top university. 1/2 - View other replies
