NFL player sacked over domestic violence:
The Baltimore Ravens terminated Ray Rice's contract and the NFL suspended him indefinitely this week following a video made public of him knocking out his then-fiancee (now wife) in an elevator.
The incident has once again ignited conversations about violence perpetrated by high profile sports starts and the role that they play as role models for millions of young men around the globe. It has also created a great deal of criticism directed against his wife, Janay Rice, who went on to marry the player following the assault. As a result, twitter hashtags have emerged in which survivors of family violence talk about why they stayed in abusive relationships, and why they left.
Ending family violence should be a key issue:
Maori party co-leaders Te Ururoa Flavell and Tariana Turia have spoken out this week to remind parties of the real issues facing Maori communities that are not being addressed in the election debates across our screens.
