ESPN REPORTER GOES OFF ON PARKING LOT ATTENDANT
|| By FITSNEWS || ESPN has suspended its Washington, D.C.-based sideline reporter Britt McHenry in the aftermath of her profanity-laced tirade against a parking lot attendant.
McHenry’s car was towed in Arlington, Virginia earlier this month – and she apparently didn’t take too kindly to having to pay money to get it out.
“I’m in the news, sweetheart,” McHenry tells a female parking lot attendant in a leaked video. “I will f*cking sue this place.”
The 28-year-old New Jersey native was just getting warmed up, too, berating the poor woman for having “no education” and “no skill set.”
“I wouldn’t work at a scumbag place like this,” she says. “Makes my skin crawl even being here.”
More choice cuts?
“Maybe if I was missing some teeth they would hire me, huh?” McHenry tells the attendant.
Ouch …
“Lose some weight, baby girl,” she says at the end of her rant.

McHenry did apologize … sort of.
“In an intense and stressful moment, I allowed my emotions to get the best of me and said some insulting and regrettable things,” she said via Twitter. “As frustrated as I was, I should always choose to be respectful and take the high road. I am so sorry for my actions and will learn from this mistake.”

Oh dear goodness, let me pray right now that my parking lot tirade, which happened to have taken place at an airport in another state, was not recorded. I said what everyone else was thinking. It was within a year after 9/11, the f*cking park natzi was so self important he ran us in a circle for about an hour – long enough to miss a flight.
Luckily we had shown up early, but were still in danger of missing a flight. I listened to my soft spoken boy friend at the time try to communicate, asking where to park. I said nothing. After the third time or so around the block, I couldn’t back it back any longer.
A crowd of several hundred people got an ear full. They looked surprised and almost thankful someone said exactly what they were thinking. I simply said, “Where the f*ck do you want us to park?”
He of course wanted to take the high road, “now lady calm down, no need for that kind of language.” I looked in in face and said, “we have waited and waited and followed instruction, so one last time I am asking EXACTLY where the f*ck do you want us to park?”
We laugh about the day I lost control of emotion, but we were put in line and we did make our flight. How sad it was that it had to come to that.
Her attitude is nothing that can’t be fixed by a good romp in the sack.
won’t work on her….
Worth a try, and you’ll never know with that attitude mister.
And get this: Hillary Van Parks in Handicap Spot?
The news just keeps getting WORSE for FITS…so he is trying to talk about anything BUT Hill…
Obama has DESTROYED you party. I told you that. I said you’d have to have a Black candidate to draw the multiple (cheat) voters…
SUCKS to be you…LMAO….
Hillary Van Parks? What channel is she on, bucko?
Don’t worry…you would not believe it even if she rolled Scooby Doo over your Dumb @$$…LMAO….
Part of being ignorant, is not wanting to know…and you certainly FIT that criteria when it comes to your Democrat politicians…
And get this: Hillary Van Parks in Handicap Spot?
Who the fuck is Hillary Van Parks? …and Handicap Spot? Is that near the Hamptons??
“I am so sorry for my actions and will learn from this mistake.”
“You bet, I will learn, the next time I won’t allow myself to be caught.”
The dialogue reminds me of a conversation I had decades ago with a rural county jailer here in SC. It didn’t work for me either.
Make up is definitely needed before she does ESPN broadcast
not too far from being a dog….
Well, she’s an unpleasant little shit, isn’t she?
“I don’t like the shit they do when they tow cars either, but…”
If she didn’t do her job, there would not be parking spaces available.
True. It’s not like some of the predatory towing companies in Myrtle Beach. They would make Jesus Christ cuss.
I guess the uneducated trailer park lady can hold a job longer than her bitchy ass can. How embarrassing!
She’s YOU…Dumb@$$….She is just relevant enough to get busted…
We know which one YOU are in this scenario. Except that’s not true, b/c at least the parking lot attendant is employed.
— just another obnoxious Yankee.
Which is a lot better than a snake-in-the-grass confederate.
“Delta is ready when you are.”
Probably an Obamazombie to boot.
i’d hit it.
in which sense you would “hit it”, pray tell?
In the metaphysical sense…….of course.
Carefull…Mia McCleod will come and kick your ass.
I see what you did there. Clever, sir.
A job with Fox news will soon be offered.

That kind of turned me on.
The bitch is really impressed with herself, she even has a masters. Just goes to show, education don’t make a lady.
She must want to be Reese Witherspoon when she grows up. Low-rent behavior, that.
definitely not a muscle-buster…
Congrats you’re in the news now biotch!
She’s obviously a progressive liberal, but a sassy pretty one.
Not sure how you get that she’s a progressive liberal from what she said. There are plenty of conservatives who are extremely rude and condescending to what they see as the “lower classes.” Meaning the people who facilitate their lives, day by day. Arrogant elites infect both parties.
ok, I watched the clip – not a tirade – just bitchy…
I thought that too. She mumbled it, bitchilly. Had she raised her voice, and said the exact same thing, it would have been a tirade.
What really bothers me is that parking lot attendants actually make spoiled Britt’s life easier. If not for them, parking spaces would not be available or would never be built in the first place.
Second, who does she think her TV audience is? If not parking other attendants and others in similar jobs.
What a cunt! It is great when people act as if they are above everyone else and then get brought down to Earth right after. Must not be fun when the people who you looked down on get to look down on you. Have fun with your bull lawsuit, I’m sure a judge somewhere needs a good laugh!
If she weren’t hot, or if she were as old as Linda Cohn or Hannah Storm they would have fired her as soon as the video came out.
True. Looks make a lot of difference.
Look at the females who write for FITSNews.
Although, to Will’s credit (and I don’t even know what it was about), he has supremely dissed an absolutely gorgeous reporter at The State, on Twitter. In the past, good-looking women in SC politics or media seemed to get a pass from him, even if they were Democrats/liberals. With the possible exception of “Pippi,” which seemed to be a love-hate kinda thing. I guess this one (name escapes me. Her surname suggests that either she or a hubby are from India) must have deeply insulted him, personally, I don’t know. But he went off on her bigtime.
If she weren’t hot, ESPN wouldn’t have hired her in the first place. You don’t need a master’s degree to ask someone how it felt when he caught the ball.
She’s just like any one of you self-entitled, cul-d-sac little yuppers….(condescending yuppie-children who are always telling everybody you have all the answers)….
And what’s more..you’re the first non-thinking SOBs to be patting the sports media on the back for quota-hiring, no matter how incompetent and stupid she is.
Look at FITS, he’s EXTRAORDINARILY wrong on so many issues…yet so many of you bow at his knee because he espouses the same political ideology as you and the the rest of pop culture…
So don’t bash her…she is a product of your ignorance…..
Yet some of the stuff she said sounds exactly like some of the juvenile, menacing, lying stuff you say on here all the time. It’s uncanny, really. You can say that “she is a product of your ignorance”, but she actually DISPLAYS every flaw in your approach. See what an idiot she sounds like? It wouldn’t matter if she had anything of substance to say or if she had a point. She is a babbling moron so none of that would matter if it were even true. No one listens to menacing and narcissistic klap-trap. You could learn a thing or two from her.
Genius is wasted on the ignorant…it’s why your opinion is meaningless to me.
Typical liberal response. Nothing but trite nonsense. It’s why you’ll never be effective and are nothing more than a babbling menace. Pretty astounding for someone who is in their 60s.
“.. cul-d-sac little yuppers..” — there are no cul-de-sacs on Bub Schumpert Road…
A a native from the great state of New Jersey – all I can say is, 1) glad I haven’t lived there for 30 years, b) what a bitch – she needs to be fired c) saw one pic of her on Google – nic nips. d) she could be the best looking chick around – she’s still from Jersey – end of story. e) Fox would hire her as a sports commentator for the Morning Blonde Bimbo show in heartbeat. f) if she was your girlfriend you’d dump her after three months, and lastly, g) let’s see the G on G with Snookie.
take away the peroxide hair, the (probably) capped, certainly straightened teeth, two pounds of make-up, the padded push-up bra and what do you have left?
the best way to see people, as they truly are, is to see how they treat individuals they perceive as being beneath their perceived social status. I had an uncle that was Chief of Staff at a major hospital. He was also a nationally known surgeon, but he made it his business to know the names of as many of the hospital’s employees he could. You cannot believe how a janitor’s eyes lit up when my uncle took the time to speak to him and called him by name. I learned more from that interaction than any college degree or masters could credential. My uncle understood that in the end, we are all just people. This bimbette has not learned this lesson yet….
“New Jersey native”
Need we say more?
Such a pretty little girl…………then she opened her mouth
I cannot believe the comments I’m reading on here. You people actually feel sorry for the tow employee? I feel sorry for Britt, for having to face such backlash and the threat of losing her job over her expressing herself as is her right under the First Amendment. It’s sad that we have come to this in America.
Most folks learn by about the age of twelve or so that karma’s a bitch. She was certainly free in this great nation to spew her sad, petty, self-important nonsense on the tow company employee. Likewise, her employer is free to decide that the viewers will very likely to lose some interest in her. Karma’s a bitch…free markets are a bitch. Smart people get this (she obviously doesn’t).
I’ll be da sistah’s mistah!
Fired Harold Reynolds but this chick gets to stay??? ESPN putting liberalism in sports since January of 2009.
Who would you rather have for a daughter?: 1) This Britt woman or 2) Caitlin Upton, the Miss Teen SC beauty contestant from a few years ago.
And another question for you: If Britt had been from South Carolina, with that personality, would she have gone to Clemson or USC?
