No. They’ll report on it, but it will be through more comedic Instagram posts from athletes, and a 5 minute aside from Bob Costas, who we hope won’t contract pink eye again.

I have a feeling NBC is not going to report on the problems very much. They want shiny, happy, uplifting stories.

Is the notion that you can disagree with and dislike someone but still believe that they shouldn’t have to tolerate sexual harassment really that complicated?

Have you ever read The Lost Regiment books by William Forstchen? They contain elements of the Civil War era inventiveness you’re talking about here. You might get a kick out of them, if you like military fantasy.

His famous deal with Merv was telling. He sold it as a win win, then as soon as it was signed, began bragging about how he suckered Griffin badly. Even if he could get a good deal with another country {unlikely}, he would instantly nullify it with his crowing.

This is the thing about Trump that I don’t hear about all that much in mainstream analysis - he’s not a businessman OR a reality star, not really. He’s a salesman. Every problem is a failure to make a sale. Iran nuclear deal? Kerry didn’t get up and walk away from the table and then “double up the sanctions,” so he

On the surface, that reads like a conspiracy theory. But it is one that most likely will come true. Insurance companies have a lot more legal pull than people realize.

I'm a man so this probably doesn't help, but Gawker in general this week is becoming vile on a level I cannot shake. Watching those comments as well as the ones on the main page regarding BLM and the Dallas shootings are starting to hurt me on my fucking soul. I do not understand how people have become so twisted as

Don't be silly, those stories were just metaphors. You have to focus on the real important stuff like floods and the world being created in 6 days. That's what really matters. (/s)

Cool. Now replicate feeding the hungry and curing the sick.

The small print in the Amazon Prime Sweepstakes (for a chance to win a trip to be in the audience for the filming) indicated that filming would take place in California.

The sad part is that this guy has money and is the head a major media media dispensary. He can use both of them to influence a lot of important people and drown these women in counter-suits. These cases will likely get buried in sealed settlements with heavy non-disclosure clauses.

I’m so shocked. Like, who could imagine that man using his power and influence negatively? Men don’t do that! Plus, this is a conservative news outlet, they value family and religion and morals, not sexually harassing women.

This sounds bad, but that’s probably because most of you haven’t seen the just aired Fox News expose Lying Newsroom Sluts: America’s Epidemic.

Good for Gretchen for coming forward and empowering all these other women to speak up. I hope they bury him in lawsuits.

Yea, that’s unfortunate. NBC’s coverage has always been fairly bad. I was a gymnast through college, so it’s really frustratingly bad on a lot of levels, plus the casual sexism...just no, NBC.

You’ve been very lucky with your bosses if this doesn’t ring true to you.

I know one of the waitresses at the restaurant (which is in my hometown) and she said the couple was thrown out for being rude and drunk, including yelling “Our families came here legally, yours didn’t!” (quote taken directly from her Facebook post).

The NBC coverage across all sports sucks. It’s filled with casual sexism, lack of knowledge about the sport, and just pure idiocy. And my number one pet peeve is all of schmaltzy storylines. I don’t care about the backstory, I don’t want an inspiring anecdote. Just show me the sports! Like, you’ll watch for an hour

Good. I’m totally a casual gymnastics viewer but I’ve always hated the horrible coverage provided by networks. It really is all about the big sob stories with maybe 5-10 minutes of actual coverage sandwiched in between. And of course they only focus on a few of the athletes - either the ones with the biggest sob story
