"Many of us never understood how gals’ years-old claims of “sexual harassment” meshes with their willingness to stick around (and thrive) in the sexually-harassing corporate environment they abhorred. "
Fox News??? You mean they are still on the air??? I quit watching that bunch of liberal talking hacks years ago. CNN, PMSNBC, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS other wise known as Constant Bull S**T, all are liberal hacks. That is why I go to the Internet and go to conservative sites to find the truth out. I could watch any of these pukes above and get the exact, EXACT same script.

Palin is the true meaning of an empowered woman. Give us a NOW with women like Palin leading the way.
I hope The Donald hasn't missed an opportunity here.She would have been an invaluable asset to the administration.
Why did she mention the elephant in the room right after Meghan McCain?
FNC’s “hard news” division has definitely swerved Left. “Special Report,” “Fox News Sunday,” and Shemp Smith’s show are unwatchable.
The morning shows and the evening “commentary” still retain their “conservative” bent.
Big admirer of Sarah here, but she does have a rather humdrum, PC side. The simplest explanation for her above observation is that the scandalous harassment 1) didn't happen; 2) is now being heavily embroidered and falsified; or 3) was not something the young woman objected to at the time.
Those subjected to bad behavior by a boss at work have the same choice any man does: Quit. If there's real criminal behavior--and I'm not talking about the "hostile environment" crap you'd expect to hear from any snowflake who can't handle work--say it now. Or it didn't happen.
That would be the tough love I expected from Sarah. But even though she had real smarts, a focus on principle, and a great work ethic, she rose through the ranks in politics with the help of a feminist, girl-power bubble of sorts herself. And it didn't hurt being a confident athlete and a real looker.
During my years in the military and in corporate America, I have seen men harass men as a matter of routine.
Some men are leaders though, and work to establish a business culture of respect and to foster innovation; same with ladies who are in leadership roles. Those were the environments I respected most for work.
The military must have a different approach in that ‘harassment’ is a form of training to extract every aspect of individual ego out of a soldier and train each soul to mesh and function with the unit. It simply can’t be any other way.
This ‘unit’ mentality carries over to corporate organizations that must meet deadlines. If an individual is not performing with the unit according to the unit’s deadlines, then hazing and berating are near certain to ensue. Maybe in these settings there are other ways but a culture of “it’s Ok to miss deadlines” cannot be tolerated.
The above harassment is merely cracking the whip on those who are not keeping up with the unit. Either get with the program or get out.
Other forms of harassment? Sexual groping? Cat calling? That’s a sign of low-quality leadership. Sarah’s comments would apply here.
Most people don’t care what this fool thinks. She’s not relevant at all and is pretty much just an attention whore at this point.
She makes a very good point in telling women to object to discrimination right off the bat, not to just take it and then blow the whistle later (after their own self-interests have been served). The first thing the EEO people will ask is “when did the abuse first happen, and when did you first say something about it?”
Megyn Kelly is the one who brought Ailes down, from reports we’ve seen.
Greta was his biggest partisan. Now they once again work for the same company.
From what I’ve read, Andrea Tantaros’s departure also had to do with the sexual harassment scandal.
Sarah talks about an opening for a new network. Reportedly, that was Donald Trump’s plan had he not won the election. His on-in-law, the publisher, was supposedly going to be the day to day head of Trump TV.
We do have Newsmax, The Blaze, and One America News. (The three of them aren’t doing better for a reason similar to why conservative third parties didn’t do better during the RINO dominance — there is a spot for one, and there are several.)
Would another one float, or just cannibalize those networks, Fox, and itself? It’s like having a successful drugstore on the corner — until drugstores open up on all four corners and they all go under.
Still, it might be a welcome, refreshing option if it can find a different way of doing things, instead of the same old partisan talking heads.
The ‘sexual harassment’ stories ARE BULL$H!T
Roger Ailes was a geeky dweeb of a guy who thought he was expressing romantic interest.
He had hundreds of underlings he could have demanded “have sex with me or you’re fired” - but none of that seems to have happened.
