In a recent incident that has everyone talking, reporter Tara Jensen found herself in a heated confrontation with a towing company after her vehicle was towed while she dined at a local restaurant in Arlington. The minute-long footage captured by security cameras reveals Tara, who has a striking appearance and a confident demeanor, unleashing a series of sharp remarks at the cashier. Some notable quotes include, “I’m a public figure; I’ll sue your business,” and “Maybe consider hitting the gym, sweetheart.” The standout line? “I’m on camera, and you’re stuck working in a trailer!” This kind of banter certainly echoes the classic lines of “My dad invented the internet,” and “I can’t help it if I’m famous.”
The fallout was swift—just two hours after the video surfaced, Tara was suspended from her job at a major network, illustrating the gravity of her actions. In an attempt to mitigate the backlash, she tweeted an apology stating, “My emotions led me to say some regrettable things. Although I was frustrated, I should have remained respectful and taken the high road. I sincerely apologize for my behavior and will learn from this experience.” Despite her contrition, social media has been unforgiving, labeling her everything from “self-entitled” to “disgraceful,” with many calling for her dismissal.
However, the story takes an interesting turn. A quick peek at the Yelp reviews for the towing company, Advanced Towing, reveals a pattern of questionable business practices, prompting some to rally behind Tara with their own horror stories using the hashtag #TeamTara.
As for how the video hit the internet, it was thanks to Sarah Mitchell, the employee who recorded the encounter. Reportedly, Sarah warned Tara of the recording, but she has since taken to social media to amplify the story, even posting on Tara’s Facebook wall to draw more attention to it. Eventually, Tara decided to block her—classic move, right?
