It took me a while to remember who this chick was then I remembered she sometimes covers the NFL games during ESPN NFL Countdown.

ESPN's Britt McHenry Suspended After Bullying Parking Attendant on Camera

ESPN reporter Britt McHenry has been suspended for one week, following the release of her shocking on-camera confrontation with a parking attendant.
In case you missed the initial news, footage of McHenry verbally abusing a parking attendant made its way around the Internet on Thursday morning — and it was ugly.
Among other nasty remarks, McHenry asked the attendant, “Do you feel good about your job? So I could be a college dropout and do the same thing?” She then proceeded to ask, “Maybe if I was missing some teeth they would hire me, huh?”
McHenry concluded the heated exchange by saying, “I’m on television and you’re in a f—ing trailer, honey. Lose some weight, baby girl.” (Yeah… she’s kind of an awful person.)
She released the following “apology” several hours after the video went viral:
In an intense and stressful moment, I allowed my emotions to get the best of me and said some insulting and regrettable things. As frustrated as I was, I should always choose to be respectful and take the high road. I am so sorry for my actions and will learn from this mistake.

She's a vile little B that I would still hit. Intense and stressing = parking in a no park zone and getting towed. Obnoxious. I'd hit.

Wow...awful doesn't even begin to describe how horrible she a person she is.

Would still bang, I agree. But I would be very dastardly about it. Like, I wouldn't even cuddle her or nuthin'

I saw a thing on TV where they tested color's effect on mood. They painted every square inch of a towing facility office like that in pink, including every item on the desk. People walked in and almost all of them took a step back because of the blinding pinkness and most of them remarked on that instead of blurting out the insult they had waiting on the tip of their tongues. The girl at the counter at said office who has to take sh like this all day from people looking to exact revenge over someone for their own mistake said the verbal abuse went down to nil just like that. I guarantee Britt wouldn't have been an insipid twa8ought in a pink office, because she is essentially the human equivalent to cotton candy.

No spooning, I agree.

Some of the comments on FB and other social media are just plain vicious. Karma.

Lol. As if this girl has a "skill set." Hope she finds something up to her standards when ESPN fires her the day after her 30th birthday.

Oh and despite working at ESPN and having a degree, she still can't put together a proper sentence:

Yeah, you really added to the sincerity of your apology by mangling past/present tense usage.

Not really sure what the Facebook stuff accomplishes considering she rarely used it and hasn't been active in over 3 years.

If you watch ESPN with any regularity, you've probably noticed that she's been on countless assignments with NFL and MLB teams lately. She was hired last year, I believe. I wonder what will happen when the suspension is over. I think part of the reason she was hired (ok, the main reason she was hired) is because she's young, blonde, and with a nice personality. It's tough to continue faking it when a lot of people know you're a mean (bleep).

Yep, I'm sure her assignments will start dwindling when she's off suspension.

There is no shortage of attractive, bubble-headed bleach blondes. There's no need to hang on to one with that kind of baggage.

I'm sure one of our fellow LG pervs will be more than happy to take care of that.

A lot of the reviews seem to mimic the reporter's comments. Can't say I am surprised.

This seems overblown. The person she yelled at probably deserved it.
