There's a link in that article titled "didn't apologize to Edwards personally." He apparently was given the opportunity to apologize, but refused. And apparently he has a history of talking down to female sideline reporters, even on the air. The dude is an on-air personality; he's gotta know that if he makes the network look bad, they're going to let him go. That's just a fact of life, something you accept when you sign up for that kind of job. So, his mouth got him fired. That's show business. Something tells me his career isn't over.

Yes, forgiveness is nice, but there are two sides to that coin, the other one being remorse, and this guy showed none, in my book. The only apology he gave was to the viewers. If he were sincere, he would have apologized to Edwards personally. And yes, I do believe that if the situation were reversed, and she was calling him vulgar names at a production meeting, and didn't apologize to him for it, she probably would have been fired, too.

I guess it's worth noting that, at least according to her, she wasn't the one that reported the incident to management, it was someone else at the meeting.
