HuskyCaucasian Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 08:38 AM) Ehh. Nothing is going to happen to either of them. I'd have that same conversation with a buddy. I'm pretty surprised they put it on twitter though. It seems Spiegel's original point was that she's bad at her job which is true. Weird that it went that direction. For someone who gets on his soap box about racism, and sexual discrimination, and the like... he's a much more sexist than you'd think.

Kyyle23 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Spiegel is addressing it right now, he seems pretty apologetic and regretful. Should be interesting to see if Bernstein does the same at 1, I doubt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my biggest gripe with it all. Bernstein acts that he is holier than thou without sin. And here he is objectifying women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It popped on my Twitter feed because a Canadian hockey writer I follow RT'ed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Bernstein has gone down this road with sideline reporters many times--namely Erin Andrews. Â My feeling is he'll do a twitter apology, make quick mention of it on air, and not go down this road again. No suspension or firing.

shipps Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 You know, with people like Bernstein who are so extremely critical of everything others say or do will ultimately face the same scrutiny in the end.

Â In the past I definitely think there's been reaches to make stories out of something, I don't think that's the case with Bernstein's comments.

Spiegel's I have zero issue with, if he thinks she's not good at her job, he's in the right to say it. Really though, Spiegel is in the same business, and appears on Kaplan's show on CSN. As a professional, he really shouldn't be sharing his thought on a peer on social media especially since it isn't some controversy that occured. What he thinks is poor job performance shouldn't be shared with the world. That can only get you in trouble. Besides, his apology was weak. He is sorry he offended her but started the whole thing off talking about how bad she is. If you weren't intending to offend someone, why would you go out to twitter and mention how bad someone is at their job?
