Mina Kimes thinks perception of Dianna Russini-Mike Vrabel scandal is unfair to women

ESPN analyst Mina Kimes says the scandal involving former NFL reporter Dianna Russini and New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel has given bad-faith actors an excuse to target women.

For background, an ESPN report earlier this week cited anonymous female reporters who claimed the scandal has caused them to navigate their jobs differently.

"One reporter said an assistant coach told her he would not want to be seen meeting her for a coffee, specifically citing the optics of the Vrabel-Russini situation," ESPN reported.
