I worked at MTV from 1987-1988 and I can testify that even then it was he most racist and sexist environment I'd ever worked in. (THe only job I can honestly say I was sexually harrassed in the old-fashioned way).
Yes, but standing against sexual harrassment didn't become in vogue until the whole Clarence Thomas-Anita Hill saga, which I believe was after your work there. Of course, "ministering" to underlings in the workplace became fashionable again in the mid-90's, or so I'm told...
Manhattan was my legal residence then.
Was MTV still on West 57th street? In the early 80s, I used to see Goodman and Blackwood and JJ out in the street in front hailing cabs and Goodman frequented the China Club uptown on Broadway same as me....85 or so.
Can you elaborate how the place was sexist and particularly racist?
Just curious.
