“The amount of gender violence that I experienced is absolutely extraordinary,” Judd told TODAY correspondent Craig Melvin in an interview that aired Tuesday. “A significant part of my day today will be spent filing police reports at home about gender violence that’s directed at me on social media.”

“If I were in a more calmed state of mind I would [have] phrased [it] differently,” she explained during a sit-down on MSNBC Monday. “I might have said, ‘I am really disappointed what seems like ultra-aggressive play’ … instead of what I wrote, ‘I think Arkansas is playing dirty.'”
