There does not appear to be any dangerous blood between “Jeopardy!” champion Amy Schneider and Fox Sports activities.
Schneider informed TMZ that Fox Sports activities despatched her a private apology and clarification after the community accused her of intentionally lacking her broadcast when she dropped her first look at Giants’ Satisfaction Day earlier this month.
“They are saying the explanation they misled their viewers was to cross-promote, to not me, so I take their phrase for it,” stated Schneider, the primary transgender member of Jeopardy! to take part within the Champions Match.
Schneider was invited to carry the ceremonial first area at Oracle Park on Satisfaction Day of the Giants on June 12. Fox Sports activities as a substitute broadcast the first speech of NASCAR driver Kurt Bush from the earlier Thursday.
The director of the Fox Sports activities broadcast appealed to Schneider to apologize and reaffirm that the scenario had nothing to do along with her id, TMZ experiences, including that Schneider accepted the community’s apology.
On the time, Fox Sports activities stated that tv broadcasts weren’t normally broadcast on the primary venues.
“On Saturday, as a part of an promoting package deal for the NASCAR weekend race in Northern California, we confirmed the primary recording of the well-known NASCAR driver Kurt Bush,” a Fox Sports activities spokesman informed SFGATE.com on the time. “This promotion was under no circumstances to overshadow the ceremonial first presentation for the sport, as it’s not a routine for us.”
