Late Monday night ESPN published a joint report from Jeff Passan and Mina Kimes that New York Mets general manager Jared Porter has admitted to sexual harassment.
The report states that ESPN obtained an exchange of text messages from Porter, then with the Chicago Cubs, to a female reporter. The text messages were unsolicited and explicit in nature. The reporter claims to have received and ignored more than 60 messages from Porter during that time.
Porter reportedly did acknowledge messaging the reporter when asked by ESPN, though he tried to deny sending any explicit pictures of himself.
