The Ravens are pissed off at CBS for airing comments head coach John Harbaugh made about the Pittsburgh Steelers following their 21-7 win over the Tennessee Titans. The Ravens complained that some of the statements made in the locker room were not for the public to hear. Senior VP of Community Relations released a statement regarding the incident.
“The comments made by John Harbaugh in the locker room following today’s victory over the Titans were meant for Ravens players and coaches only,” Ravens Senior Vice President of Public and Community Relations Kevin Byrne said in a statement via Pro Football Talk. “The CBS-TV crew that was in the locker room was told by Coach Harbaugh that it could not broadcast what he was about to say. When Coach Harbaugh finished talking about various things happening around the NFL and in the AFC North, he told the crew that it could now use what he was going to say. Inexplicably, CBS-TV then aired comments Coach Harbaugh specifically said were not to leave the locker room. CBS-TV immediately pulled the video and apologized to the Ravens.”
Do you think CBS should have to apologize? It has been one PR nightmare after another for the Baltimore Ravens this season.
