Ahh as always it’s the details. Problem is it’s the Washington area, and she’s the reporter for the Commanders. Who are under new ownership in part because Snyder created such a toxic culture filled with harassment. And this station is part if iHeart who have a deal with the Commanders. And there you go. Here’s the money quote:
According to WUSA9, new team owner Josh Harris and team president Jason Wright were extremely upset over the ordeal.
“We have worked hard to ensure that everyone feels safe and respected in our workplace, and we took swift action when we learned that an employee of our partner iHeart made sexually disparaging remarks to and about a member of the media while she was broadcasting live from training camp yesterday,” a team spokesperson told the station on Saturday.

Having just gotten Snyder out the Commanders can’t give even the slightest image of tolerating anything. Remember the Snyder regime was so toxic it wound up spawning a congressional investigation. Nobody that’s at all associated with the team will be able to say anything even slightly sexual about anybody else for at least a year. There’s an image that needs a lot of cleaning.

Dumb thing for him to say; why disparage her on her looks? Also, the only person who needs to concern themselves with how tight she might be is her husband. A cheap shot from a lowbrow person.

The worst are right here in Detroit and are still on the air. Drew and Mike. Them bastards about 15 20 years ago said... “The Davidians were a bunch of Wackos the Deserved to be exterminated!” I turned them off and never once listened to them again and barely tuned in WRIF after that!!

Spit...

I remember 100.3 when I lived in the area. That station played the same songs over and over. Drove me nuts

For kind of a Trump remark, in his earlier days, no less.

I used to listen to him in the 80’s on WLS in Chicago. Liked him back then.

SO happy Geronimo is gone. What an asshole. Finally gave up on him altogether (even though he’s on the area’s classic rock station) when he went on a rant against Paul Stanley from KISS. Stanley had said let’s not give sex-change surgeries to kids just because they like to dress in ways to provoke their parents. Geronimo actually said, “if anyone ought to understand transgender kids, it’s Paul Stanley.” Uh, if anyone oughtta understand dressing to provoke parents, it’s Paul Stanley. Pretty sure he’s not trans.

If you're a male working with females, stop talking to them. I say this as a female, too. The only way to stop this nonsense is to make women's lives in the workplace as difficult as possible. If a female approaches you for something work related, cut them off and request they send you an e-mail and let them know you'll respond via e-mail. Then, keep the e-mail response strictly about the subject.

I thought Barbie would be considered a compliment, meaning attractive shapely woman.

It’s not like he said, “Jane you ignorant slut!!!”

Why can’t people just stfu? You know it’s polarizing. You know you are always under a microscope in public. Be professionals.

“The position of the mike is very clever.”

If she pushed it in it would probably stay there.

Yeah. If a woman looked like Helen Thomas, but had absolutely encyclopedic knowledge of sports history and modern football strategy, she would be the most highly sought out candidate for the Sports reporter position.

I mean you use it when you use it, and condemn someone when you don't want to use it. Seems a little one sided.

Is that all? I still remember what Dick Biondi said on air that got him fired from WLS back around 1965!

He later appeared as a TV newsman for a northern California station, a long way from Chicago.
