Wow. This social media storm is a touchstone study in misinterpreted overreaction.
Erin had the raw emotion and adrenaline of Richard Sherman in her right ear and a scared-silly producer in her left, while standing on the field of the loudest stadium on earth moments after a championship victory. Wow.
Then, her facial expression of listening to Sherman, thinking of her next question, and hearing an interrupting voice in her earpiece gets turned into King Kong versus Fay Wray with hundreds of thousands of one-line insults, accusations, assumptions, and misguided anger sent flying around the globe in an instant. Wow.
Kudos to Erin Andrews for speaking the truth. Maybe some folks will chill the funk out.
