    I've seen the Charissa video mentioned here in a couple posts... heard of the Andrews ones, but not this.

    So they can keep making $2 million. Same reason lawyers hire other lawyers when they get in a fix.

    In her defense, maybe she started using one several years ago around the peeping tom case.

    Because I found this article when I read a link posted here and it involves making stuff up.

    Did ESPN really think nobody would care that they deepfaked a Damian Lillard interview?

    "I'm not paid to talk."
    -Tired people asked for those magical sound bites they're supposed to dole out after games.

    I witnessed this once in a great while. Sympathies to both sides, but the more I hear about and from Thompson and now Andrews, the madder it makes me on behalf of the women I encountered who -excuse me for being crass this morning- busted their butts to get where they are.

    Especially when women already have people whispering about them.

    I know Erin Andrews never covered the NHL, but the fact that she’s married to a guy who plays/played in the league will be held against her by some.

    I seemed to recall the first time I saw Erin on ESPN, it was covering a Lightning game.

    Because no legitimate media would alter a video, or, I dunno, fake pickup trucks blowing up, in order to advance their agendas.

    Not me. He was muling my drugs into the pool in Las Vegas when he got nabbed. But that it were true.
