ESPN fires MLB reporter Marly Rivera for calling fellow reporter ‘f–king c–t’

At first, this seemed like a locker room spat. But at BP during a signing session for kids is insane. Even if Rivera had an exclusive lined up that was ruined, she can't act like this — especially if she felt she had a target on her back.

I kinda feel cheated that a slapfight didn't ensue ...

If an outlet has set aside time with a player for an "exclusive," Yankee PR should have set aside a spot on the field for the player to speak with the reporter and a set time for the player to be there. Yankee PR then tells the player that ESPN wants you for five minutes over there, hopefully away from the crowd of autograph seekers. PR tells the crowd that ESPN needs Judge right now, thank you and go Yankees.

Judge walks over, PR follows and quietly listens, Judge finishes, goes into the locker room and prepares to hit a couple dingers.

I hate the generalization of the term exclusive, but if she did have one, that didn't seem like exclusive environment.

I don't know. Maybe the field before the game is more of a shirtshow than I remember or it should be.

I've been fired ... several times ... from various jobs. I wish one of them was because I called someone a "forking c*nt" before I went to GET A forkING HAIRCUT.
