The ESPN reporter Britt McHenry was caught via a security camera at a tow yard when her car had been towed and she spoke harshly to the cashier. She said, “Lose some weight, baby girl,” and furthermore she said, “I’m in the news sweetheart, and I will [explicit] sue this place.” McHenry went on to say, “Maybe if I were missing some teeth they would hire me, huh? Oh like yours cause they look so stunning. ‘Cause I’m on television and you’re in a [explicit] trailer honey.”

Pardon The Interruption host Tony Kornheiser was subsequently suspended for two weeks when he made rude and uncalled for comments towards SportsCenter anchor Hannah Storm. “Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She’s got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt … way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now. She’s got on her typically very, very tight shirt. She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body … I know she’s very good, and I’m not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won’t … but Hannah Storm … come on now! Stop! What are you doing?” He did make an apology the next day but was suspended regardless.
