Reporter says she wasn’t concerned about NFL players’ behavior
Mexican television sports reporter Ines Sainz told “Good Morning America” co-host George Stephanopoulos Tuesday that she didn’t think cat calling, taunting and other harassing actions by New York Jets players and coaches during a practice Saturday was a big deal at the time.
“I didn’t feel like I was in danger,” she said. “I wasn’t concern.”
That said, there has been a surprising amount of backlash against Sainz and her cleavage.
While she was named one of the “Five Sexiest Sports Reporters in the World” by FHM and has been known for her risque outfits, the 32-year-old has defended the outfit she wore to the practice - a pair jeans and a white button down -, saying it was far from “inappropriate” and many women wear similar looks.
Sainz, who didn’t make the sexual harassment claim, may not have been offended, but others are.
At the urging of the Association for Women in Sports Media and others, the NFL is investigating sexual harassment claims.
New York Jets owner Woody Johnson has apologized to Sainz for his team’s antics.
Ines Sainz also appeared Tuesday on the NBC’s “Today” show.
