      It's highly unprofessional. Whether he meant anything by it or not, it's just unprofessional. Comments like that don't typically fly in a typical work environment.

      he would never say some stuff like that to a guy, he’s been covering the pacers for years and has never said anything like that, so because its a chick he’s allowed to act creepy. that was beyond uncalled for in any setting.

      @@growgodly i 100% agree with you, it was a failed joke, yes reporters do banter and trade jabs with male athletes.
      BUT! dont file this under cancel culture, he’s not canceled he still has a job he still has a voice, he still has social media access, albeit he was suspended for two weeks and cant cover the team for a year, ( and from what ive read he’s never covered that team before ) he still has a job. Rule #1 in a job do not embarrass the company, and he did just that, so they had to sit him down for a bit.
      but please dont confuse this as cancel culture, that word gets falsely thrown around far too much.

      All you have to know is that a woman was offended. It doesn't matter if it was justified or not.
      This is why women's sports aren't POPULAR in this country. Reporters can't even ask them QUESTIONS without getting SEVERE backlash. If you're a reporter you wouldn't WANT TO talk to them after this.
      We see why in this story.
      Fired for asking her about her heart hands, really?
      Swap genders here and you'd have NO STORY.
      Not to long ago women sports reporters were PISSED OFF 😡 that they couldn't interview MEN in the locker rooms!
      If a DUDE did that to women athletes, would NOT hear the end of it! 🙄

    All these white dudes who are saying its no big deal are only saying that because they more than likely sound just like him. So to them it sounds harmless despite his creepy intentions and tone. To a lot of other people he sounded like a real perv.. "start doing it to me and we will get along just fine." How tf is a woman supposed to perceive that? I mean did you guys really not hear is demanding tone? His tone was straight forward and to the point. It didnt sound anything like a joke. Im the star reporter in this town, stay on my good side. "Start doing it to me, and WE WILL GET ALONE JUST FINE." That was his tone and his words. End of discussion.
