ESPN suspends Tony Kornheiser for criticizing anchor's wardrobe

By Chris Chase

ESPN has suspended former Monday Night Football analyst and host of Pardon The Interruption Tony Kornheiser for "a few days" after comments he made on the radio about the wardrobe of SportsCenter host Hannah Storm.
Last week, Kornheiser opened his Washington D.C. radio show by critiquing the clothing Storm was wearing while hosting one of the Tuesday morning editions of "SportsCenter". He said:
Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She's got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt. Way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now. And she's got on her typically very, very tight shirt. So she looks like she's got sausage casing wrapping around her upper body. I mean, I know she's very good, and I'm not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won't ... But, Hannah Storm, come on now! Stop! What are you doing? ... [She's] what I would call a Holden Caulfield fantasy at this point.

Just look at what she was wearing during the Sports Reporters last weekend:

She is awesome. I just kept waiting for a Basic Instinct moment.

if the criticism was aimed at someone outside of the ESPN network would he have been suspended?

Maybe, maybe not. It's an entirely different issue than trashing one of your employer's on air personalities.

Your employer can, and sometimes will, regulate your speech.
