Sorry, but I don’t see a woman or a man flirting to get to the top in the same category as assault or rape.

reportedly, Batali was caught on video and had a special room in a restaurant to take women. It was called The Rape Room.  Google brings it up.

Personally, I'm thinking that there is no need to hire someone else for the various shows that have been 'in the news'.  Today Show, The Chew, etc.   They are all doing just fine right now. Imo.  (Keep in mind that I haven't read or researched information re: the latest firings, suspensions, people accused, etc.  I've just been noticing that the shows in queston have been rolling along quite well. )  ........... P.S.  The same with Access Hollywood Live.  The two women hosts are doing very well, imo.

Girl power?  I have a serious issue with that tag because women can be abusers as well in the workplace last I checked.

I was more than bummed to hear about Mario Batali's indiscretions but if you Google him (especially the Spotted Pig) I personally could never watch another episode of The Chew again.  The man has a serious problem and to be honest if you watched him in previous shows the signs were there.  I hope that his family and employees are able to have a good life going forward.

.... and where is the proof?  Take them at their word?  I'm for firing/arresting anyone (man or woman) who is guilty.  More than one accuser?  Proof in numbers?

I'm just remembering the horrific period of time when teachers at pre-schools were accused of molestation all over this country mainly because the experts told us that these children could not possibly come up with the stories they were telling if they were not true.  Meanwhile reputations were ruined, people fired, arrests made and then....  other "professiionals" said to hold up a minute,  went back into the mire and realized that many of the children were not molested.  It was quite a period.....

I forgot all about that.  I don't even hear it ever mentioned.

Where is the proof?  Apparently on a video, so it is said.

My son is a wonderful man, just like his father. They  are  kind and fair to everyone. I resent having all men libeled ,and labeled as terrible  and evil

I have heard of ,and seen, plenty of women who are not good  people. They can be  as bad as the worst of men, some can even be worse

I don't believe one sex has all the good people, and another sex has all the bad ones

If we ever reach equality ,it will never happen if you see men as the enemy.

Yes, I do know but I can't say it here.

I inferred that @Goldengate8361 was speaking of men who are harassers. I seriously doubt that she was talking about all men.

I have no doubt that Goldengate8361 was not talking about all men.  Some people can't read between the lines and she did not deserve the rude remarks made regarding her post.

@cherry, no one here or on any other thread about this issue has labeled all men as terrible and evil.
