Appearing with Matt Lauer on "Today," Webb said she wasn't offended.
"I think the media has been really unfair to him," Webb said on NBC's morning show. "If he would have said something along the line of that we were hot or sexy or made any derogatory statements like that, I think that would have been a little bit different. The fact that he said we were beautiful and gorgeous, I don't see why any woman wouldn't be flattered by that."
ESPN apologized, saying Musburger's commentary "went too far," but Webb didn't think an apology was necessary.
"I don't think it was needed, honestly," Webb said. "Of course, I appreciate it. At the same time, I don't think I needed an apology."
