Conservative Pundit Tells Hannity Ray Rice’s Wife Knocked Herself Out, He’s The Bigger Victim

A conservative columnist and Fox News contributor told Sean Hannity that Ray Rice is the bigger victim and Janay Rice “knocked herself out” when her head hit the elevator railing. 

Conservative pundit A.J.Delgado, whose work has appeared at the National Review and Breitbart, appeared on Sean Hannity’s radio show Wednesday and claimed that Janay Rice actually knocked herself out, and Ray Rice is the bigger victim.

Delgado insisted that Janay Rice “doesn’t consider herself a victim of domestic violence and some might even say, watching that video, Ray Rice is the bigger victim of domestic violence here.” 

“We know the truth, though, because we’ve got the video tape,” Hannity responded. “But you said that he’s a victim because why? Because she slapped him and spit on him?”

“He absolutely is,” Delgado said. “Some may say I’m defending Ray Rice here. Maybe I am, but if you watch the video, the video actually makes him look better than he did before. She repeatedly attacked him. He’s a victim — flat-out fact — of domestic violence. Only after she’s hit him several times and spit on him does he finally hit back.

“And she happens because of that blow to knock herself out on the railing,” Delgado claimed. “That was an unintended consequence, I’m sure of what he did. But he is a victim just as much here.”

“He just as affected and just as much a victim and hit even more than she was,” Delgado concluded.

Delgado is the author of the 2012 book, Hip To Be Square: Why It’s Cool To Be A Conservative.
