They have a CEO who was hired in-house when the culture was already bad so no big surprise that it continues to be awful. In-house hires can be fine or even desirable but only if it isn’t a guy who - as practically his first comment - says that women who should quit asking for raises and trust that they’ll get what

The Sun is a racist rag (owned, IIRC, by Rupert Murdoch) so this is just another piece of trash.  Good on her PR team from correcting the record.  Everything Megan goes through reminds me of what Princess Di endured.

Buy an island and fill it with rescue dogs.

Gotta love how the racist Brit tabloids straight up projects their racism onto the fucking queen.

One thing needs to be made abundantly clear to anyone working for any major company or corporation: despite what they claim, HR’s job is not to protect YOU, their job is to protect THE COMPANY. Seen through this lens, HR’s actions or inactions in a lot of these cases make sense: investigate whether there is evidence;

I worked at MS a decade ago and witnessed some insane behavior from young men to women. The nerds weren't bad, but there were a group of club going guys at MSN that should have been fired. Instead management wanted to be like them.

I’m a man, and I have NEVER been verbally abused where I work. If I were, I would report it and expect management to take serious action. Stop being complicit in abusive situations - no one should have to put up with that, regardless of their gender identity.

I feel like some women ask to be treated the same and don’t really grasp how poorly most men treat each other.

This raises a good point for me. There is a distinction between a magazine article that discusses controversial viewpoints and one BY people with those viewpoints. There is a further distinction between each of those and putting a person with those viewpoints on the masthead. The latter doesn’t just air out the view

To be clear, I haven’t heard other stories about Biden, so I was commenting mostly about Anita Hill’s situation and sexual harassers in general. In this incident about Biden, I see it as generational cluelessness, the privilege a white man, who’s been in power all his life, takes to lavish what he says he sees as

I think you’ve raised a good point. Harassment can be about power more than sex. Look at Louis C.K. I think the press should be investigating all of the stories and photos of Biden now before we get farther into the primaries. Being a “creepy uncle” is code for unacceptable behavior.

It’s like this in the military, too- the government is incredibly conservative and the sexism is stunning.

And what I’ve learned over the years is that comments like the ones Hill reported are designed not to get you to sleep with them but to put you off your game. You come in confident, you’re thrilled to get the clerkship or the job, and you’re competition. It’s hazing; that helps them confuse you, knock you off your

Best reminder of how young Anita Hill was when she went through that. I’m old now but remember how she was treated, remember the Clarence Thomas “this is a lynching!” combativeness (cut to 2018 Kavanaugh - same strategy their PR coaches teach them), and the tut-tutting from all the boys in the boys club.

I constantly ask, now if he was a woman, would he be on the air?

What do we do about behavior that isn’t assault but is gendered, unprofessional, and ultimately unsettling?

Honestly my most burning question for the filmmaker is, how bad does he smell? Steve Bannon looks like he smells bad.

It always makes me laugh that this blob of sentient, spoiled mayonnaise is one of the prominent faces of a “superior race”
