ESPN's Steve Phillips Fired Amid "Fatal Attraction" Scandal

Hundley sent them via a letter to her former dean at the Park School of Communications at Ithaca College in New York. Hundley wrote the how-to-get-ahead advice in April 2007 after she attended the International Radio and Television Society's annual two-day career workshop and job fair.

Her advice:
- "Networking is not sucking up"
- "Appearance matters ... So put your best stuff first and make an
impression that counts, it may ultimately determine a job offer."
- "You only get one chance to shine, so make sure you're ready for it."

After their brief relationship ended this summer, Hundley contacted Phillips' sixteen-year old son on Facebook, damaged Phillips’ home, and contacted his wife, giving her a letter containing graphic details of her affair with the analyst.
