The Big Lead passes along the news that Kornheiser is suspended for "a few days" as a result of his comments.
From that story, Kornheiser did apologize to Storm the next day by saying, "I apologize, unequivocally ... I'm a sarcastic, subversive guy ... I'm a troll, look at me. I have no right to insult what anybody looks like or what anybody wears. That, I think, should go without saying."
But that apology, however, was not enough to placate the bosses at ESPN, so a suspension seems to be a bit extreme on ESPN's part.
For that reason, Tony Kornheiser probably had to be disciplined: ESPN wanted to send a message that it takes such things seriously, and not even one of the network's biggest stars is above the rules.
