Except that's not at all what happened.
The story makes it out like Cornette told the girl to commit suicide or some friend of hers. This is not true at all. Cornette reviewed some wrestling match (over a YEAR ago) and said the ring announcer was so poorly dressed he should have been drug out into the parking lot and hung. Which was obvious hyperbole and was not at all him encouraging suicide. When this girl brought it up, Cornette gave the line that others could have been involved in the hanging. Again, an obvious joke, since no one was hung and no one would hang someone for being poorly dressed. The "sexist" stuff was Cornette working her up, because this lady constantly attacks Cornette on Twitter and pointed to an old Andy Kaufman line he used on someone else as sexist. The whole thing is stupid snowflake nonsense. Cornette says a lot of over the top things about people, but he was not encouraging anyone to commit suicide.
