Howard Eskin's Career Ends After Altercation

Howard Eskin, a longtime Philadelphia sports radio host, reportedly had a physical altercation with a female employee of Audacy, WIP's parent company, at Chickie's & Pete's in South Philadelphia. The incident, which involved Eskin allegedly grabbing the employee by the shoulder or arm, occurred after a heated argument during a remote broadcast with Eagles player Brandon Graham. This altercation led to Eskin's abrupt departure from WIP after nearly 40 years of service. Eskin's exit comes five months after being banned from Citizens Bank Park for an 'unwanted kiss' incident with an Aramark employee, for which he later apologized publicly. Following his departure, Eskin was denied media access to the Eagles' NovaCare Complex, as he was no longer affiliated with a recognized media outlet. Both Eskin and Audacy have not commented on the latest allegations, marking a significant end to Eskin's storied career in Philadelphia sports media.
