The Swamp

I do agree that "searching for Pluto" is WAY too thin to throw in the mix. That said, almost regardless of which version of the Production Assistant you choose to believe... That was pretty classic harassment. He was married at the time, she had told him she had a fiance. They had no business going to his apartment and drinking and it was pretty clearly a power move with a shitty dynamic involved.

Not to split hairs, AB, but this isn't a "newspaper" thing. This is "just about anyone can call themselves a news outlet." I'm not saying the story isn't accurate, I'm just saying this isn't about some bigger plot by The Media to go after all male celebrities. Not saying you're saying that, exactly, but it seems implied.

This story has been trying to get out for at least 4 years. This woman confronted him publicly before and has written about it at least 3 times. I'm not familiar with the site that broke this, "Patheos," but it seems like this woman has been trying to get this version of events out there for awhile and MSM hasn't been willing to touch it.

And I'm pretty sure you're safe. Just don't ask a subordinate up to your apt/hotel room and talk about needing a physical release. You can do it! I have faith...

Not surprised at all by this one.

(and also, I can count and that would be a foursome, not a threesome)

Yuck. What happened with Craig Carton's criminal case? What a bizarre story that was.
