BREAKING NEWS – Arlington, Virginia – ESPN reporter Britt McHenry has been suspended for a week after video surfaced of her berating a parking lot attendant. McHenry was angry about having her car towed, and began dressing down the attendant despite being told the incident was being captured on security camera. “I’m in the news, sweetheart, I will (expletive) sue this place,” McHenry said in the video published online by LiveLeak.
“Yep, that’s all you care about, is just taking people’s money,” McHenry said. “With no education, no skillset, just wanted to clarify that. … Do you feel good about your job? So I could be a college dropout and do the same thing? Why, cause I have a brain and you don’t?” As she walks out of the lot, she tells the attendant to “lose some weight, baby girl.” McHenry apologized a few hours after the video went viral online, saying in a statement that, “I realize that I am a lot more intelligent and attractive than most women. Even though my college degree justifies me putting down most people, I should have been aware that the average person could not comprehend and embrace my constructive criticism, unless they could get passed my dazzling beauty.”
