An ESPN presenter Tony Kornheiser has been suspended due to the mean remarks he made about co-host Hannah Storm’s dressing

On his radio show last week, an ESPN presenter Tony Kornheiser made some mean comments about his co-host Hannah Storm’s fashion choices. Kornheiser said the following;

"Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She's got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt ... way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now." [She's 47.] "She's got on her typically very, very tight shirt. She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body ... I know she's very good, and I'm not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won't ... but Hannah Storm ... come on now! Stop! What are you doing? ... She's what I would call a Holden Caulfield fantasy at this point."

Then the next day Tony Kornheiser said this on his radio show;

"I apologize unequivocally. ... I was wrong. This is sort of what I do, and I'm sorry for it. ... Not the first time and won't be the last time but I apologize for it this time."

Tony Kornheiser will be suspended from ESPN for a few days for the comments that he made about Hannah Storm.
