Arkansas Radio Broadcaster Fired for Gator Hat

Thoughtless move, but are you effing kidding me? Is there a lawsuit in there somewhere?

This is one of those cases where everyone involved looks stupid.   

that used to wear an OSU hat into Michigan press conferences with Carr. He handled the camera for one of the local news outlets i think. Had this look on his face like he was mad all the time. Wonder if he still does that. A black dude. Anyone know who that was?

That's like wearing sandals to a meeting with a potential customer because you couldn't find your shoes. I can't say she really deserved to be fired, but I won't say that she didn't have it coming.

That is some shady shit. 

a lot of sympathy for her.  Whether or not she really did grab the hat without thinking, as she stated, doesn't really matter to me.  She works for Hogs Sports Radio.  She was at an Arkansas Press Conference.

Her bosses recognize that their station wouldn't be who and where they are without the University of Arkansas.  I wish our local media execs had the same gumption.

I predict that after one conversation with an attorney, she will suddenly "remember" a long-standing pattern of sexual harassment. 

If they wanted to punish and take the apology, whatever, that's fine. But you wouldn't wear a GM t-shirt to a Ford press conference, or otherwise tweak the nose of someone you're doing business with. That's just stupid.

Even if she grabbed the wrong hat on the way out the door, you'd think she would have taken it off before the press conference. A bit harsh on the punishment, but it's a pretty serious mistake when you're representing a news organization. 

She was on DP show today.  She is actully a Flordia Grad.  She said the Bobby answered her question ans she thought that he was joking when he said he wouldn't answer any other questions with that hat on. 

She was let go because she was not allowed back to practices.  And when it is your job to cover the practices its a little hard to do when your not allowed in.
