Ad Disclosure
Roll Tide.
Alabama’s rabid fanbase doesn’t take getting called out lightly.
One Crimson Tide enthusiast filed a FCC complaint against Fox Sports analyst Clay Travis because he used a “public forum” — also known as his weekly column — to “engage in libelous and slanderous statements.”
Hailing from Montevallo, Alabama, the angered fan claims that non-public/private individuals are “unable to defend themeselves in an equal manner due to the lack of a public forum afforded to someone of Richard Clay Clavis’ profession and employment.”
True story.
Travis laughed it off and posted a screenshot of the complaint on Twitter:
