Sports media is as leftist as the MSM, especially Deadspin which is part of Gawker.

Uh...Deadspin is breaking this story. It’s the espin’s of the world that bathed in it all season. Maybe you should read it. It’s actually shocking.

What does leftist have to do with this story? It is superb investigative reporting that is so lacking in the MSM. I wish that we had more such reporting on politics and current events.

I thought the capper was the following:

Update (5:17 p.m.): Notre Dame responds:

On Dec. 26, Notre Dame coaches were informed by Manti Te'o and his parents that Manti had been the victim of what appears to be a hoax in which someone using the fictitious name Lennay Kekua apparently ingratiated herself with Manti and then conspired with others to lead him to believe she had tragically died of leukemia. The University immediately initiated an investigation to assist Manti and his family in discovering the motive for and nature of this hoax. While the proper authorities will continue to investigate this troubling matter, this appears to be, at a minimum, a sad and very cruel deception to entertain its perpetrators.

Let's see if ESPN will cover this story. It is just as much a blockbuster as the Armstrong fraud.
