Chicago radio host fired after suggesting ESPN's Maria Taylor's outfit was appropriate for the adult film awards
-
Taylor was working her first Monday Night Football game last night when 670 The Score host Dan McNeil tweeted of her outfit: “NFL sideline reporter or a host for the AVN annual awards presentation?” This morning, McNeil was fired, with his boss saying: "Last night's tweet, and its degrading and humiliating tone to a fellow female broadcaster, was unacceptable." Taylor responded to the tweet after the game: "Well Danny Dearest if you would like to continue making sexist comments about me...please bring your misogyny with you to the NBA Countdown double header I’ll be hosting tomorrow night. Hey ladies remember you can wear whatever you feel confident in!"
