The fast-talking sports personality, who is now with CBS after a long run with ESPN, seemed stunned by Stern’s quip.
“I don’t know if that’s fair,” Rome said of the retort.
Rome and CBS would later send out a statement on the controversy.
"It was a rhetorical device. A lot of people don’t know that phrase (‘Have you stopped beating your wife yet?’). They didn’t know where he was going," Rome said. "I understood it. I didn’t take great offense to it. I didn’t agree with it. But the fact of the matter is I thought my question was direct and it was not a loaded question. So I thought that analogy was inappropriate. My point is, I don’t think that it’s fixed (the NBA Draft). Even after that conversation, I don’t think that it’s fixed. But I thought the question was fair."
