Athletic releases investigation into Dianna Russini; relationship with Mike Vrabel violated standards
World4 sources2 countries7m ago
An internal investigation by The Athletic has concluded that former NFL reporter Dianna Russini violated the company's standards due to her relationship with New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel. The review followed fallout from a photo scandal that pictured Russini and Vrabel together at an Arizona resort, leading to Russini's resignation in April.
While the investigation determined there was a breach of company standards, the report was unable to determine the exact nature of the relationship between the reporter and the head coach, and it drew no final conclusions on certain aspects of the situation.
