Definition of witch hunt: “Essentially, it is a targeted attack against one person, for reasons that are not necessarily tangible. Trying to find someone to target and humiliate.”

Admittedly, I had to do some definition surfing on the Internet to find something to fit my agenda. But explanations about “subversive activities” (The Free Dictionary), political opponents “with unpopular views” (Merriam-Webster) and actual witches didn’t really work, so I turned to the hipsters from urbandictionary.com.
And they delivered. The coffee’s on me.
Before continuing, and as if you needed the heads-up, we’re talking about Tom Brady and Deflategate.
