Bob Costas and NBC sports - Page 3

NBC's Bob Costas tells sports radio host Dan Patrick his anti-gun remarks on Sunday night were a mistake because 90 seconds wasn't enough time for him to "flesh out" what he meant to say so he was completely misunderstood.

Costas says he should have saved his comments for a different forum, rather than during halftime of Sunday's NFL game, but did so because "this is when the Belcher situation had played itself out."

So what you are saying Bob ..it was for your Tv Ratings ...Oh I get it ....

Here is a link to where you can send an e-mail to NBC to fire Bob Costas.

I wrote to a couple of addy's on the link stressing that an nfl game is not the place for Costas's Anti-gun rhetoric. Costas is not an informed or responsible journalist to not have checked out the facts that vehicle accidents maim and kill more people in the US than guns ever have by a ratio of more than 4 to 1. But, no one ever brings this up.

anyone receive any responses by chance, or heard any more on this? as with anything else that's bad press, it's soon swept under the rug and forgotten...
