He's a reporter, he has to ask about this kind of stuff. It is literally the job he is paid to do. Maybe there was a better way to do it. OK, very likely there was a better way to do it lol. This is Randy P we are talking about, he's not exactly on the Mt Rushmore of sports writers.
WRT to losing his press pass-- that's very much a TOE reaction. You make me uncomfortable, I will ban you from access to do your job. That is a highly insecure and thin-skinned reaction. I want our entire AD to be better than that. Part of their job is to answer tough (and often stupid) questions.
Whoa Whoa Whoa....are you saying he is getting to do that job? Now Im really pissed!
