A woman who worked on the set of the ESPN talk show “Cold Pizza” is suing the sports network, saying she was fired after complaining about sexual harassment by the show’s host and a regular panelist.

Ragone said Paige once grabbed her backside so forcefully, she was “propelled forward and into the air.”
