Those are definitely credible sources. Do you want to reconstruct the article? If not, I'll try to get around to it sometime this weekend. Sarcasticidealist 23:12, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind either way. I'm a bit tired, so I might not do it this evening. If anyone wants to do it before I get around to it, that's fine by me. --h2g2bob (talk) 23:21, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and did it. I salvaged most of the prior text, except for the section that said this established that women were equally capable of reporting on sports. That wasn't the issue! Not this time, anyway.--Dhartung | Talk 10:30, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The sexual harassment incident was referred to on Aaron Sorkin's Sports Night (1x05 - Mary Pat Shelby) when Natalie Hurley suffers a similar incident.
