Daniel Tosh unleashed a wrath on ESPN after they aired a segment similar to his. Tosh.0 has a segment called “Web Redemption” where people who have embarrassed themselves on the web are able to come on his show and redeem themselves. ESPN has recently aired a segment called “Awesome Video Segment” which share similarities to Tosh.0 and they even share the same catchphrase “Are you ready to give it another shot?”
ESPN recently spoke to TMZ Sports and refuted stealing his idea.
“This was more of an instance of us using a common phrase than it was copying his wording.”
“We know that doesn’t sound like the strongest explanation yet it’s the truth.”
The network adds, “We are looking forward to ‘giving it another shot’ in future installments of ‘The Awesome Video Segment.'”
Daniel has yet to release a statement concerning ESPN’s recent comments but I’m sure its not far.
