The Big Lead.com, another outlet that can’t be bother to cite their source, cites Harold Reynolds’ firing thusly,


Over the weekend, Reynolds allegedly took a PA for a meal at Outback Steakhouse. Afterward, he hugged her in a way that may have been deemed inappropriate. Apparently, the PA felt weirded out, and decided to file a complaint.

Says Reynolds to the New York Post’s Andrew Marchand,

“This was a total misunderstanding,” Reynolds. My goal is to sit down and get back. To be honest with you, I gave a woman a hug and I felt like it was misinterpreted.”

I’m sure you’re all as shocked and dismayed as I am.  I know that Bristol ain’t quite Paris, but the (fucking) Outback Steak House?  Say what you will about the Worldwide Leader’s other past and present male employees with alleged zipper issues (Tirico, Phillips, Olbermann) but we’ve yet to hear anyone accuse of them of groping at the Sizzler.
