Some one did What?

Sports blogs are all decrying the peephole video of popular ESPN side line reporter Erin Andrews that has surfaced over the weekend
(report). They are reminding every one that it is a sick crime- even refusing to link to it, as that would only add publicity (even though they have never refused to link to unsuspecting photos of Erin Andrews before).

Our previous coverage, they say, of Erin Andrews is both light-hearted and mostly related to sports. It does not follow that we would endorse stalking, or this sickening level of objectification.

Of course. Where would some one get the idea you endorse this kind of behavior?

Question: Fox News versus sports blogs- who is doing a better job of back-tracking, after a crazy viewer finally took their lazy, embellished reporting seriously?

note to readers: The VLR, unlike most sports blogs, is not above posting this video. We are simply not savvy enough to find it.

If you have it- forward it to us. We will add some sort of
“Visitors Locker Room” waterstamp to it and post it on our site.

…Please include instructions on how to waterstamp a video too.
