Chris Mortensen nixes chance to explain false Deflategate report
ESPN’s Chris Mortensen was scheduled to appear on a radio show in Boston on Friday morning, but he pulled the plug after it became clear that the hosts were setting the stage to blast him for his Deflategate reporting.
Mortensen told WEEI’s “Dennis and Callahan Show” that he was not going to become the “centerpiece” of the Deflategate story because of one early report.
