Steve Phillips Fired by ESPN
Steve Phillips Fired! That’s right folks, Steve Phillips was fired by ESPN just days after being accused for having an affair with a younger co-worker.
“Steve Phillips is no longer working for ESPN,” network spokesman Josh Krulewitz said in a statement. “His ability to be an effective representative for ESPN has been significantly and irreparably damaged, and it became evident it was time to part ways.”
It seems Phillips was fired not for having sex with a subordinate or sexual harassment or creating an unsafe work environment or even for cheating on his wife. Steve Phillips was fired by ESPN for being an embarrassment to the company.
But Krulewitz would not comment when asked about the employment status of Brooke Hundley, the 22-year-old production assistant who slept with Phillips and then began a steady campaign of harassment toward his family. For all we know she might still be working there, but probably won’t be getting promoted anytime soon.
