The most common way to "flip the script" is to reverse the race of the subjects involved in a news story or legal case to see if you can expect the same results.Take this one, which I've heard frequently from readers over the past few weeks:
"What if Frank Jude were white and the cops who beat him were all black? What would you say then?"
That's an interesting scenario but highly unlikely.
How about if someone said the jury looked at the Frank Jude case as a police beating that went horribly wrong? You might flip that script and get Eugene Kane on
Charlie Young Jr., a local handyman killed by a mob of young people during a neighborhood beating that went horribly wrong.
