WTH is happening in Pittsburgh?

Nerdy is the TV and Radio boards, where you see such insightful comments as "I can't stand the Channel 4 weather girl. She says 'umm' too much!"

 

Hey, she bugged the hell out of me, and my family was tired of hearing me bitch about it ...

 

Well, that escalated quickly.

 

This is now the second female employee within the month to come out and claim belligerence and/or harassment.

 

There's apparently a whole Twitter account, @DK_Turnover, preparing to have a schadenfreude-gasm over an impending Deadspin story about Kovacevic. I remember back when media gossip was fun.

 

Doesn't he post here?

 

Dejan felt the need to respond to an article that doesn’t exist yet.

Kovacevic: About the coming Deadspin article

 

And here it is:

Jesus.

"Beth Mincin, a Pittsburgh-based sports blogger who has written for PensInitiative.com and SB Nation’s Behind The Steel Curtain, says she met Kovacevic in 2014 at the Riverhounds’ stadium while he was covering the team. She says that in June of 2014, Kovacevic texted her to let her know that he would soon be launching the site, and while he said he couldn’t hire her as a staffer or pay her to write, he offered her exposure on DKPS as a reward for a much different assignment: have a threesome with him and his wife, or have sex with his wife while he watched."

 

I'm curious about the timeline here. Did Dejan respond publicly to the yet-to-run article, or did he answer the writer's questions in an email, or what? Because that had to be like Christmas for the writer, to have the disclaimers laid out in front of him so he could discredit them one by one and then publish the story.

He surely does come off as a strange guy.
