Both of these threads have involved a number of people trying to outstupid their predecessors.
And you're right. Every single commentator who has spoken about it has said the Flames are handling it the right way. Even NBCSN, who dedicated a bunch of time to the issue during both intermissions in the Hawks-Stars game last night.
If people want to see a team doing it the wrong way, look to the Houston Astros, whose sexist and misogynistic assistant GM tried to intimidate a female reporter by praising domestic abusers, in front of other reporters. The team first tried to say she made it up, and after other reporters backed her up, they were silent, then tried a half-assed apology, and then grudgingly fired him. They didn't take it seriously at all until they realized that the firestorm of criticism wasn't going to stop. The Flames, on the other hand, have taken this seriously and with sincerity from the moment Aliu made his accusation.
