"Cold Pizza" Host, Producers Sued For Sexual Harassment

A Bronx, N.Y., make-up artist filed a sexual-harassment lawsuit on Thursday against Walt Disney Co.'s ESPN Inc., a Washington, D.C., production company and several members of ESPN2's cancelled "Cold Pizza" morning television program.

In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Manhattan, Rita Ragone alleged the " sexually charged atmosphere" on the "Cold Pizza" set in Manhattan created a hostile work environment and that she was sexually harassed by Jay Crawford, one of the hosts of "Cold Pizza," and Woody Paige, one of the show's frequent panelists.
