Gregg Doyel’s inappropriate exchange with Caitlin Clark has reportedly gotten him temporarily suspended from the Indianapolis Star. According to People, who cited a paywalled report by local Indianapolis reporter Bob Kravitz, the Indianapolis Star has benched Doyel for two weeks, until May 13. Based on Kravitz’s post, Doyel will continue reporting on the Indianapolis Fever upon his return. However, he reportedly won’t be allowed to attend in-person games or sit at the post-game press conferences.
However, the Washington Post reported that The Star has removed Doyel’s ability to report directly on Clark or her team, the Indiana Fever, altogether. “Indianapolis Star sports columnist Gregg Doyel will not be covering the Indiana Fever,” said the Indianapolis Star’s spokesperson, Lark-Marie Anton in a statement to the publication. While Doyel has not publicly addressed his suspension, he made a brief comment via email to NBC News. “Getting tired here, so taking some time off and won’t be checking email,” said Doyel. “If I can be of service when I return in May 13, please let me know then,” he added.
The Indiana Fever hasn’t commented on Doyel’s suspension or exchange with Clark.
