ESPN’s Britt McHenry has been suspended after a video of her cursing at a worker at a car impound went viral.
“I’m in the news, sweetheart, I will f***ing sue this place,” McHenry says to the attendant at Advance Towing in Arlington, Virginia. She goes on to berate the attendant for her appearance and job, saying, “Maybe if I was missing some teeth they would hire me, huh? Cause they look so stunning … Cause I’m on television and you’re in a f***ing trailer, honey.”
ESPN suspend McHenry after the rant, and McHenry took to Twitter to apologize:
