The 32-year-old, who covers the Chicago Bears and has guested on ESPN’s First Take, became visibly frustrated by the technical hitch.
“All right, f*** this,” she eventually snapped, ripping off her earphones in footage that went viral.
Jonathan Hood and co-host David Kaplan looked stunned, quickly moving on and saying they would put Cronin on hold.

“Clearly five long days at the combine caught up with me and were the catalyst behind my sleep-deprived on-air flub.”

Cronin’s rise has continued ever since, anchoring SportsCenter and hosting/reporting ESPN Radio, First Take, and Around the Horn.
She grew up in Glenview, Illinois, and graduated with degrees in journalism and Spanish from Indiana University.
Cronin’s battles with technology felt a familiar subject for plenty of ESPN viewers, who voiced their sympathy online.
“Anyone who has had to deal with that kind of echo on a broadcast knows it can REALLY mess you up. We’ve all thought it, she just said it. Probably not the best choice,” wrote one on X.
“I am a bigger Courtney Cronin fan than I was a minute ago,” said a second.
“My new favorite reporter,” laughed a third.
