Gale King: I Feel "Sick to My Stomach" Over New Charlie Rose AccusationsSorry, I have to ask: Are you really saying you had no idea this was going on? Or is this an attempt at insulating oneself from accusations of complicity? Women talk, I've heard it said. They don't talk to me, certainly, but I do hear they talk among themselves and sometimes to men who bother to take a shower every now and again.
Twenty-seven women is a lot of women. It's difficult to believe they all kept this silent, or that management didn't hear rumors or even direct reports. On this one: Tried?
How hard did he try? Probably not that hard if your date remained with you. I mean, no homo and all, but Charlie Rose seems to be, on a surface level, to be more of a catch than sad Jon Podhoretz. More details from The Washington Post report: The new allegations follow an earlier Post report on Rose's behavior at his namesake PBS program, in which eight women accused the TV star of making lewd phone calls, walking around naked in their presence, or groping their breasts, buttocks or genital areas. Rose issued an apology. His PBS show was canceled and he was fired from CBS News. Although many of these women are anonymous to avoid retaliation (retaliation for telling #TheirTruth -- in a liberal industry? Shocking!), some put their name under their accusations: "I had been there long enough to know that it was just the way things went," said Sophie Gayter, now 27, who worked at "60 Minutes" in 2013 when, she said, Rose groped her buttocks as they walked down an office hallway to a recording studio. "People said what they wanted to you, people did what they wanted to you," Sophie Gayter said of her time at "60 Minutes." Note Gayter is accusing Charlie Rose, but she's also saying "people" -- including other people than Charlie Rose, one assumes -- did this. A Culture of Harassment? ... Rose wasn't named in the lawsuit but he was a co-anchor of the show. So, do the math. And executives -- at least one -- did know, according to claims:
Here's one of his interns, signing her name to the accusation:
Some claims of sexual harassment are debatable, even if you assume they're true -- men and women do like each other romantically some times, and it's long been the species assumption that the man should initiate any romantic overture. But these allegations do not seem to fall into the category of flirtation-taken-too-far or even clumsy passes. According to these accusers, this stuff is just straight-up groping or overt sexual overtures made in the workplace to an inferior that wouldn't pass muster even in the Free Love 70s. I cannot believe the gall of these people to preach to us as if they were Televangelists every single day while some of them were pulling shit like this, and many of them were practicing the art of tactical ignorance. One angle: I remember that Howard Stern and Robbin Quivers were reminiscing about their days in Washington, DC radio. Rose was at that time based in DC. The radio duo were talking about Charlie Rose's reputation as a ladies' man, or really, a Lothario. Several questions: 1, assuming the exploits they were talking about were consensual, why did Rose feel the compulsion to also harass and paw women at work? 2, maybe let's not assume that Rose's reputation as a ladykiller was based on entirely consensual encounters. Did Stern and Quivers hear about Charlie Rose's "cocksmanship" from Charlie Rose himself? Was Charlie Rose depicting himself as Don Juan when in reality he was molesting women against their will? Worth asking, I think! | Recent Comments
