Guess it could be spin, but if true, I understand a little bit more... edited footage is a case for a pause to re-think, in my mind..

However, according to a source, the Advanced Towing employee was "rude, dismissive and taunting," and the tape released is "highly edited" to show only McHenry in an unflattering light.

"According to a source" sounds like the press making stuff up. What was she apologizing and getting suspended for.

So now the excuse is that she was rude because they were rude to her? I didn't think it was supposed to work that way - especially if you are a public figure.

With an "education, perfect teeth" etc.

The lowly, fat, toothless, uneducated person with a horrible job..well, what can we expect from HER?

So.. If any of us did this.. And we'd have mostly ALL been pissed at having a car towed.. It'd be ok. But she's a public (regionally) figure, so she's a bitch?

I make it a rule not to insult the person I am depending on to get my car back.

But that's just me.

And how about these apples?

If the offending ESPN personality had been a man instead of a woman, he might have gotten a more severe punishment.

I would have been extremely po'd..but I never would turn that anger into personally attacking, demeaning, and talking down in such a horrible way to the persons that was simply collecting the money..or to anyone else for that matter.

For me, that's what's so bad about this. I believe the public actually found out what this person is really like...ugly, ugly.
