If Gloria Allred appears today with accuser, will Cain be afforded the presumption of innocence?

Gloria Allred is supposed to appear today with the third Cain accuser, and at Google News, (among a few more news stories), it reads: CBS News: "Gloria Allred To Offer Up New Cain Accuser." The Daily Caller: "Gloria Allred To Represent New Cain Accuser."
Question in its totality, since space in thread title does not permit: ...will Cain be afforded the presumption of innocence by the MSM?
Secondly, (rhetorical question): is the onus of proof upon him to disprove or upon others to prove?
No matter how badly the MSM says that he has supposedly handled this, the onus of proof is not upon him. And he is to be afforded the presumption of innocence, right?
From what I have seen, nothing has been proven, yet this isn't going away and yet it can't be avoided.

Let’s see what she appears with, if she does at all.

In all of Cain's business career including the Dept of Defense, Godfather', Burger King, Pillsbury and The Fed there seem to have been no allegations other than the short term at the Restaurant Association that is based in the political cesspool Washington D.C..
This is odd...

This isn’t a trial, it’s a lynching.

It is indeed quite odd.
Funny how this is all taking place now, years later...
Why was it years later with Clarence Thomas, too?
Hmmm....

Why was it years later with Clarence Thomas, too? For the same reason it is years later with any uppity black man who strays too far off the libtard plantation.

If Herman Cain were a liberal Democrat, none of this (public controversy) would likely be happening. And it if did happen, the mainstream news media would first ignore it and then attack the motives of anyone attempting to bring up the subject.

There is probably no limit to the number of bimbos willing to make up stories to get in the spotlight for a moment.

I just noticed a Karen Tumulty tweet stating that she can't imagine a better event for Cain supporters to rally around Cain than a Gloria Allred presser. The panic on the Left towards Cain is quite obvious at this point.

Presumption of innocence does not apply to anything except a court of law.
This is where Cain needs to take it if they are going to lodge baseless claims.
He needs to immediately sue for slander, and demand his accuser submit to a polygraph to substantiate her claims

Why do all the accusations come from the restaurant business, and not from prior or after?

Somehow this needs to backfire personally for Gloria Allred. Perhaps a law-suit against her for slander, defamation of character......this crap has to stop!
