ESPN won’t take be called “lying bastards” lying down.
While the network hasn’t officially responded to the taunts by Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer, one of their more prominent voices did. Glazer made the remark after ESPN shared credit for breaking the news that Johnny Manziel would be starting for the Browns.
“Haha an all-time low from @ESPN on their constant thievery of other’s work. FOX PR guy calls them to call BS on their claim they had Manziel scoop. News desk guy @sportscenter tells him their reporter didn’t want to be identified. Huh? What reporter doesn’t want credit for hard work paying off? Lying bastards. Haha,” Glazer tweeted.
“SportsCenter” anchor Kenny Mayne mocked Glazer while talking about the Browns’ decision on Wednesday.
“All day Tuesday a Twitter fight was held to determine who best should take credit for reporting that Johnny Manziel would be starting for the Browns. #whocares #obviousfromSunday’scomments #DrewCarey”
