Aditi Kinkhabwala, a CBS sideline reporter, detailed an incident during a recent NFL game where Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride argued with line judge Jeff Seeman over a potential pass interference call. Kinkhabwara reported that she was present and heard McBride say "please" but did not hear any profanity from him; the official allegedly said "f–k you" twice to McBride, who then laughed at the CBS camera recording the exchange. The NFL Players Association has called for accountability regarding Seeman's behavior, which is under review by the league.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
