Cue the MRA trolls: “But why did she go to his house if she didn’t want to get raped?”

Because I hate my job and will literally read anything regardless of how much I dont care. :/

exactly! Your comment made me think of Chris Brown showing up in a suit made from white roses.

That is one of the most dour and joyless pieces of privileged crap I have ever read. Did Garrison Keillor start the “War on Christmas” conspiracy?

I liked the show too. Not as much as Tom Ashford or John Hockenberry. Fuck, NPR, you were supposed to be my happy place.

I knew it! In his statement, he said the story of his relationship with the woman is “much more interesting” than the one that was being told *and* also said that nothing really happened. I get that his idea of interesting is probably different than most, but how can nothing really happen and have an interesting…

“You should smile more, Garrison!!” I hope he gets told this a billion times per day.

Or how non-Christians shouldn’t ever say ‘Merry Christmas’ because we are not ‘part of the club’? So ‘buzz off.’ How this guy ever was considered some liberal hero is totally beyond me.

LOL, I was just thinking that he wasn’t a good singer and I didn’t know why he insisted on it.

I may be quite a rare bird because I actually liked the show, but I haven’t forgiven him since he talked shit about gay marriage 10 years ago. He was a misogynistic, paternalistic lech then, and he is now.

Translation: I’m writing a shitty book.

That was always so uncomfortable

Good call. He’d have great musicians on the show and force himself into their act. Ugh.

.............hey, it’s the Midwest................things haven’t been that Hot around those parts since Mrs. O’Learys cow got a bit testy in the 1870s (?)............

Gravity and lying.

Uh, maybe there was a reason.

I love how these guys think the workplace can turn into some Law & Order episode where there’s a judge and jury who will decide whether they keep their jobs. All they have to do is be convincing and that’s enough of a defense!

And breathing heavily into the microphone for no reason.

Keillor told MPR News, “I’ll be able to tell my side of the story at length, in my own words, in due course, and that’s sufficient for me.”

Sexual harassment? The old fart should have been fired long ago for vocal harassment after making all those guests sing those horrible duets with him.
