"In a decision that is guaranteed to be polarizing, ESPN opted to post a lengthy text exchange between John Buccigross and Adrienne Lawrence. As the Boston Globe detailed on Wednesday, Lawrence filed a complaint with the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities after she was not retained by ESPN following a fellowship.
"In a decision that is guaranteed to be polarizing, ESPN opted to post a lengthy text exchange between John Buccigross and Adrienne Lawrence. As the Boston Globe detailed on Wednesday, Lawrence filed a complaint with the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities after she was not retained by ESPN following a fellowship.
Amongst her allegations about and against the company, Lawrence accused Buccigross of “sending unsolicited shirtless photographs of himself and calling her ‘dollface,’ ‘#dreamgirl,’ and ‘#longlegs’ in messages from 2016 reviewed by the Globe. Lawrence said she tried to remain cordial in the messages but at one point responded: ‘You need to wear clothes, sir.'”
There are screenshots of the text exchanges where Buccigross tells her he is going to see Pearl Jam at Fenway and she talks about Ten.
Just reading it this morning and I am not sure what board to post it on. And props to ESPN for investigating this thing and standing up for Buccigross.
