Hannah Storm Outfit Causes Another Storm of Male Commentary on Twitter

Was it something she wore?

Veteran sportscaster Hannah Storm became a trending topic on Twitter today after the reporter appeared on the set of her show wearing what some found to be yet another provocative outfit.

The subject of Storm's attire and its affect on ESPN's mostly male audience has been around for some time. "Pardon the Interruption's" Tony Kornheiser was suspended after going off on one of Storm's outfits, calling the plaid miniskirt and red go-go boot combination "horrifying."

The LA Times even jumped into the debate with an article titled, "Tony Kornheiser Suspended: But Are Hannah Storm's ESPN Outfits Too Sexy?" which included a gallery of said outfits.

Surge Desk couldn't help notice that, once again, the vast majority of the tweets about Storm's attire this evening were from men. Though we didn't see the broadcast, you can have a look at it here.
