MED
Sympathetic framing toward Smith as the 'victim' responding to allegations; characterizes Carrington's disclosure as unnecessarily public and vindictive ('for fun,' 'ridiculous'). Emphasizes Smith's complaints about timing and collateral damage to others rather than examining the substance of cheating allegations.
