Televangelist Pat Robertson worries men accused of sexual harassment are the real victims

worried that sexual harassment allegations would derail the careers of “terrific” men in the media.

“Now it’s looked on as shocking but, folks, it’s been happening a long time and nobody said anything about it,” he said,

“Now they’re finally wising up, but I just hate to see some of these men’s careers—I mean, guys like Charlie Rose, these are terrific people and I hate to see it happen.”

“You don’t have that now, so these people’s careers are being ruined and we just hope and pray that these women are telling the truth,”

Robertson previously suggested (https://www.rawstory.com/2017/08/pat-robertson-foxs-eric-bolling-cant-be-guilty-of-sexual-harassment-because-hes-a-dedicated-catholic/) that sexual harassment claims against former Fox News host Eric Bolling were not true because Bolling was a devout Catholic.

According to The New York Times Magazine (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/21/magazine/who-can-save-the-today-show.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0), Lauer was part of “the boys’ club atmosphere behind the? scenes” at Today, which Curry said “undermined her from the start” and was partially responsible for pushing her out in 2013.
In 2012, former Today host Katie Couric told (https://www.thedailybeast.com/matt-lauers-history-of-creepy-today-show-moments) Andy Cohen that Lauer’s most “annoying” trait was that he “pinch[ed] me on the ass a lot.”
In 2006, according to video footage (http://www.tmz.com/2017/11/29/matt-lauer-katie-couric-keep-bending-over-nice-view/)on TMZ, Lauer told Katie Couric to "Keep bending over like that. It's a nice view," during a commerical break.
According to HuffPost, Lauer acted incredibly skeezy (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/20/matt-lauer-creepster_n_4823356.html) during a 2014 interview with then-18-year-old skier Mikaela Shiffrin.
In a 2012 interview (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/12/matt-lauer-anne-hathaway-wardrobe-malfunction-seen-a-lot-recently_n_2285181.html) with actress Anne Hathaway, Lauer started off by discussing a wardrobe malfunction of hers, telling Hathaway he had “seen a lot of you lately.”
Lauer, then in his late 40s, told (https://www.thedailybeast.com/matt-lauers-history-of-creepy-today-show-moments) singer Kelly Clarkson that she had a “hot new look.” When Clarkson, who was in her early 20s at the time, responded by asking “I have a hot new look?” Lauer replied, “Well, I'm back from vacation and you got my attention, I'll tell you that.”
During an interview with Pippa Middleton, Lauer focused (https://www.today.com/video/today/55542212) on the “very flattering” dress she wore to her sister’s wedding and the way it fit her, saying, “I thought it was the best of British pomp and circumstance.”
During an interview with Lauer earlier this year, actor Corey Feldman discussed child molestation in Hollywood, including his own experience of abuse. In response, Lauer questioned (https://twitter.com/RitaPanahi/status/935850970797391873?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thecut.com%2F2017%2F11%2 Fmatt-lauer-today-host-sexual-harassment-list.html) Feldman’s culpability in the matter, asking why he didn’t come forward sooner: “Why are you sitting down talking to me? Why aren’t you sitting down with the police right now?” Feldman replied, “I’m the victim here. I’m the one who’s been abused. I’m the one who’s trying to come forward and do something about it.”
During a 2008 “roast” of Lauer, he misogynistically joked (https://www.thecut.com/2017/11/matt-lauer-once-joked-about-sleeping-with-his-colleagues.html?utm_campaign=nym&utm_source=tw&utm_medium=s1) about sleeping with his former co-hosts Katie Couric and Ann Curry, asking, “What’s with all the small-dick jokes? It was fun to look over and see Ann Curry laughing … like she doesn’t know how big my dick really is.”
In 2012, Lauer was part of an incredibly distasteful mockumentary (https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow/status/935909460031152129) on sexual harassment at Today, where he said he was the “real victim” after co-host Willie Geist jokingly touched him inappropriately.
In a 2014 sketch, Lauer pretended to flash (https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/jeffrey-meyer/2014/12/30/matt-lauer-tells-today-women-drink-it-ladies) his colleagues, urging his female colleagues to “drink it in, ladies.”
In September, Lauer, who reportedly (http://variety.com/2017/biz/news/matt-lauer-accused-sexual-harassment-multiple-women-1202625959/) had notable influence over which stories appeared on Today, interviewed (https://www.mediamatters.org/video/2017/09/19/bill-oreilly-uses-today-show-appearance-attack-woman-who-reported-him-sexual-harassment/217970) serial sexual predator Bill O’Reilly (https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2017/04/20/firing-bill-o-reilly-what-gone-and-what-not/216106), giving him a platform to attack a woman who had reported him for harassment and deny knowledge about the multiple settlements he’d reached for misconduct.
During an interview with GM chief executive Mary Barra in 2014, Lauer asked (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/matt-lauer-responds-criticism-sexist-715247) her if she thought she could do a good job at being both a high-powered executive and a mother.
During a 2015 interview with musician Adele, Lauer questioned (https://noisey.vice.com/en_us/article/rjxkad/a-month-by-month-break-down-of-music-industry-misogyny-in-2015) whether she was “concerned at all that now, with the explosion of this album, that you're going to have to get back on that career treadmill and have less time to dedicate” to her young son.
During a national security forum during the 2016 presidential campaign, Lauer “behaved toward the presidential candidates in a way that was consistent with much of the research about gender stereotypes and discrimination,” according to the Harvard Business Review (http://hbr.org/2016/09/why-hillary-clinton-gets-interrupted-more-than-donald-trump). Specifically, Lauer “interrupted Clinton more often than Trump, asked her more challenging questions, and questioned her statements more often.”
During the same forum, Lauer failed to push back (https://www.thedailybeast.com/matt-lauers-history-of-creepy-today-show-moments) on then-candidate Donald Trump’s assertion that is was “correct” to claim that rape should be “expected” when men and women both serve in the military.
While reporting on the 2016 Olympics in Rio, Lauer referred (https://www.romper.com/p/reactions-to-giseles-final-catwalk-at-the-olympics-opening-ceremony-are-emotional-15867) to Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen as one of Brazil’s “most recognizable exports.”

[boutons_deux]

the Legal boys set the bar very high so sexual harassment stays legal below the bar

Boss Grab Your Breasts? That’s Not (Legally) Harassment

In a case that went to federal court in the early 1990s, a woman presented evidence (https://openjurist.org/990/f2d/333/weiss-v-coca-cola-bottling-company-of-chicago) that her supervisor tried to kiss her on multiple occasions, placed “I love you” signs on her desk, called her a dumb blonde, put his hands on her shoulders and asked her out on dates.

The trial court judge dismissed her suit, declaring that this conduct did not meet the threshold for sexual harassment, and the appeals court affirmed the dismissal.

Since then, courts have cited this case and others like it hundreds of times in rejecting sexual harassment claims. Such conduct, these courts have declared, is not serious enough to be harassment.

There remains a sense among Americans that the country’s legal system is well equipped to handle the harassment cases that will likely be brought as more women come forward with accusations,

But this notion is misleading.

In fact, courts routinely dismiss cases brought by workers who claim their supervisors propositioned them, kissed them or grabbed their breasts.

The judges declare that the conduct does not constitute harassment in a legal sense, and refuse to let the cases go to trial.

the Supreme Court used the words “severe or pervasive (https://www.vanderbiltlawreview.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/89/2013/01/Druhan_66_Vand_L_Rev_3551.pdf)” to describe the level of seriousness that conduct must reach before meeting the legal definition of harassment. Those words are not found in Title VII. Instead they are a judicial interpretation of the statute — and have had lasting consequences.

a supervisor raping an employee has consistently been viewed as “severe” enough to meet the bar.

Supervisors who have subjected workers to sexual epithets and taunting every day for a long enough period meet the standard for “pervasive.”

courts often err on the side of dismissal.

In the past half century, employment discrimination claims have come to operate in a fundamentally different legal universe from other kinds of claims.

Sexual harassment lawsuits are one area where this systematic bias appears; racial discrimination lawsuits are another.

Congress can amend Title VII to ensure the courts interpret its language broadly. :lol
