Bonnette did not say why the player was taken to the hospital, or release his identity.
Well no shite. He has a right to privacy.
Yeah it's a HIPPA violation which fines all participating parties equally (leak source, news reporter, news station, etc). Bs HIPPA fines went up to $50k base per violation each person involved.
eta: Guice would have to press the charges tho.

The patient can always give permission for information to be released, but at this point of time I doubt he knows anything, probably won't know anything till the morning.

ESPN is not facing any fines or penalties for releasing info about JPP fwiw. Pretty sure it falls back on the person who leaks it.
ETA: Looked it up, HIPAA does not apply to news organizations.

It's HIPAA not HIPPA.

Wrong...HIPAA does not apply to the general public passing on information that they heard or news media/law enforcement/etc. It is there to protect patient privacy and information used by healthcare workers/insurance/etc.

I'm sure someone else has pointed this out... but if not, just to be clear -- you are completely wrong.
HIPAA is Federal law which only applies to "covered entities". You should probably research what parties actually fall under "covered entities" section of HIPAA. There are typically other privacy laws which could apply on a state level that cover non covered entities of HIPAA regulations.
Now all that said -- you may be right about HIPPA. I'm not really familiar with the HIPPA regulations. Is that the law where all doctors have to wear tight black jeans during their off hours?
