ESPN national baseball reporter Marly Rivera is being investigated by the network after an incident at Yankee Stadium in which she uttered the words, “f—king c–t” toward a fellow female reporter waiting for an Aaron Judge interview last week, The Post has learned.
Rivera has been a dugout reporter on the Home Run Derby, some “Sunday Night Baseball” telecasts and is an ESPN Radio MLB playoff game analyst. Bilingual, she brings a different perspective to the telecasts, especially when speaking to Latin players.Before the Yankees-Angels game, Rivera and fellow reporter Ivón Gaete had a disagreement when Gaete arrived in an attempt to also interview Judge.
Rivera said she set up time with the Yankees captain and when she repeatedly tried to tell Gaete of the appointment, Gaete ignored it. “I fully accept responsibility for what I said, which I should not have,” Rivera told The Post. “It was not directed at anyone specifically and there were extenuating circumstances but that in no way is an excuse for my actions. I am a professional with a sterling reputation across baseball and I have to abide by my company’s code of conduct.”Many times, these jockeying for positions can get contentious as reporters vie to position themselves to record players; especially stars, like Judge.
