ESPN Reporter Is Rude

http://www.cnn.com/2015/04/16/us/espn-reporter-britt-mchenry-tirade/index.html

Recently, an ESPN reporter, Britt HcHenry, was at a towing company because her car was towed. Because of this, she began to berate the worker that was servicing her. Even after the worker informed her that she was being recorder, she continued her harsh tirade, going so far as to personally attack the clerk for her weight, intelligence, and her place of work. Because the video of this incident went viral, she was suspended by ESPN. She has Tweeted that she feels bad about what happened, and that, "[she] allowed [her] emotions get the best of [her]."

No matter what, you should always be kind and respectful to everybody, especially if you're famous and on TV. People like her are held to a higher standard of acting because they represent the company they work for and that company is well-known. Her actions are doubly bad because the clerk was kind enough to tell her that she was being recorded, which gave her an opportunity to get her head on right and realize that her actions have consequences. Overall, I think that it's a good thing that she was suspended. I can't stand it when people are rude to people for things that they can't help, especially their class. She made a poor choice and now she has to live with the consequences.
