She made a shockingly stupid and inappropriate joke in response to Kelly's joke.



FIFY

This is like George not being quick witted enough to be able to come up with a funny retort on the spot and blurting out “Oh yeah, well I had sex with your wife!” then laughing to himself and looking around at the room for approval while everyone else looks on in awkward silence because the guy’s wife just died.


Kid needs to keep her mouth shut if she isn’t clever enough to trade barbs on the spot without crossing a line of respect.


Glad Kelly has the personality to be able to deal with idiots like these on a daily basis and handled it like a professional.

...and now everybody's panties are stuck in their arse about what she said.



There is a clear national narrative against Kelly since leaving Notre Dame. Even though I’m sure it was unintentional, this woman fed into that fire as now this becomes a story that “Kelly doesn’t have the respect of the local media…..chaos in Baton Rouge!!”


It was an absurdly stupid moment of disrespect and she deserves to be called out on it by her employer, not to mention Kelly himself although he handled it with grace, although I’m sure her boss is a similar self important “journalist” that only cares about the clicks this will give his pathetic rag of a newspaper.

I can’t think of another profession that has gone so far downhill so fast as journalism.

Kelly should never recognize her and let her wither on the vine.

I'll see your Advocate and raise you The Daily Advertiser. Talk about a rag, I wouldn't wipe my backside with it. Another paper pretending to be local while owned by USA today.

She made a TicTok about it yesterday saying that she meant it as a joke. But you don’t make jokes like that right out the gates after the first game and expect the coach to not be pissed. Saban would’ve flipped his lid

On twitter she says it’s “no big deal”

Anyway, she is an AP voter somehow

Her question during press conference was just as bad.
Was she at every practice?

Leah Vann of The Advocate asked whether a lack of full contact in preseason practice played a role in some of the messy tackling or in mistakes like Ali Gaye’s targeting. Kelly said he’s not giving Gaye a pass on that targeting. Gaye knows he has to be better than that and is very regretful of the hit. But as for Vann’s question, Kelly didn’t attribute the problems to any lack of tackling in practice (he said they tackled as much as they could) but instead credited Florida State’s quarterback for being extremely elusive, pointing out that they had 16 missed tackles on him.

I think it's safe to say most teams struggle with tackling opening game of season. You are limited to twenty hours a week, there is only so much you can do to ramp up. Maybe preseason scrimmages against other teams would help teams get ready.

Classic advocate reporter. She needs reprimanded and barred from lsu. She’s a talentless hack

Newspapers have been gossip rags since the printing press. Internet just gives more dumbasses voices.

TV news has gotten far far worse though with the 24 hour news cycle and unabashed political agendas of networks.

I just looked her up. She’s definitely young and a cancer survivor. She said she was running late from a doctor’s appointment, fwiw.

However, these conferences are for the media to present their questions for Kelly’s comments. Trust me, there’s a billion other things he’d rather be doing. This is a once a week thing that he’s contractually obligated to do. If you’re a media reporter or “beat writer”, get there on time. This isn’t Miles or O where they casually stumble in late and so forth.

You can't tell me her dr appt can't be scheduled around this weekly press conference at the same time every week.
If you have a dr appt that can't be missed you tell your employer you can't make it and you can view it online to gather any insight for your next article.

My daughter showed me a tiktok the reporter made about the question. She apparently works for the Advocate and covers baseball as well. She said she’s always joking around with Brian(she called him Brian in the video), but she said she probably picked the wrong joke.

She spoke to BK after the meeting and apologized which he said was fine, but she still owed him $10. She said she still has a job and can still attend the press conferences.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. Just relaying what I found online.
