| Knows too little about too much  |
Charles Payne of FBN suspended over sexual harassment charge. http://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/ne...nt-claims/ar-BBDW7jh One has to wonder, if the climate really this bad for women at FNC or is something else afoot here? As in the wives of the Murdock sons. It could be an attempt to root out the old school for a newer more liberal leaning group. RMD TL Davis: “The Second Amendment is special, not because it protects guns, but because its violation signals a government with the intention to oppress its people…” Remember: After the first one, the rest are free. | ||

3 year affair with a woman who worked at CNN.... what was he thinking? Two adults, mutual consent, what could go wrong? What was that in the other thread about a few free rides? She was just working overtime for a deferred payday. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

I'd be curious to know if 1) This sort of thing is relatively common in the media business. 2) How much of this has some basis in reality and how much of it is generated for other purposes? 3) How much of this is purely ego driven? Do we have anyone here who is/was in the journalism/media business? I spent 45+ years in the telecom/IT/IS business and I can count all of the similar incidents that I know of on one hand and have fingers left over and none of those were anything like the seemingly prevalent stories we're hearing from media. ———- Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for thou art crunchy and taste good with catsup. | |||

I had a part-time job at our local NPR station for about 18 months. I used to help the News staff get the stories ready for broadcast. It was a student job, wasnt worth much. But, at least in the NPR station there were some incidence of hanky-panky going on. A few in-the-closet gay guys were having affairs with a few single gay guys at the station, and one guy was a professional gay whore, and he was quite open about it, and he boasted about his exploits quite often. Never heard about guys harassing sexually any of the women at the station, though. If you think you can, YOU WILL!!!!! | |||

Is there really something to it, or a case of "didn't know she was 'harassed' until the check bounced?" | |||

Why is this only happening at Fox? Roger Ailes, Bill O'Reilly, and now Charles Payne. If it's happening at one network, I'm sure it's going on at other networks. | |||

Maybe it's an effort to hobble/eliminate Fox News. At the other networks, the gals have affairs and end them, no extra charge. They work at a noble profession, at a noble organization. It's doing God's work! Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way.

So to recap, some married broad was banging Charles, and now she wants a payday. Solution: Give her a check for $20 per occurrence, and tell her its the going rate for a garden variety whore. Then tell Charles get back to work and be more selective. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

I thought it might be something like that. Networks like CNN and MSNBC are too noble to employ anyone who would indulge in something like sexual harassment. | |||

They tend to be all of the same mind, i.e. All lib progs. Why hurt your guys? OTOH, when you are working at Fox, as a lib prog, it's just a job, pay rent, eat, etc. until you can get to the real news. After a nice affair, you can strike a blow for your kind, bank some cash, earn envious glances from your girl friends and spruce up your invisible resume, if you play your cards right.

| Oh stewardess, I speak jive.  |
I've seen quite a bit in the Consulting / IT world (~25yrs in my case). My experiences have shown me that a fair amount happens most anytime you throw together a bunch of well paid folks who work long hours, travel together, away from home a bunch together, especially the prototypical attractive and successful and social sorts. I've been on projects with anywhere from 20-2000 of them at once. Lots of fucking going on, some of it extra-marital and the like, some of it more like college kids on spring break, and everything in between. Anecdotal, of course, but something... | |||

So, if I understand this, Payne and this female had a 3 year affair. Now, she wants to claim sexual harassment. I assume she wanted a huge payoff and didn't get it, so she makes some threats that get him suspended. Used to be they had a lot of females like her that frequented 14th (?) street in D.C. Or as they called it when we lived in MD, hooker heaven. Elk There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre.
