Powerful head of Amazon studios accused of making extremely lewd remarks to married lesbian mom
Fox News ^ | 10/12/17

An Amazon studio executive is facing major sexual harassment accusations from a TV producer who claimed that he made extremely lewd comments to her during a studio party, saying: “You will love my d—k.”

Isa Hackett, a producer for Amazon’s “The Man in the High Castle,” told The Hollywood Reporter in a report published Thursday that programming chief Roy Price propositioned her in July 2015.

In one incident, the lewd comments started during a cab ride to the party -- and came even after she told him she's a lesbian with a wife and children, the magazine reported.

Hackett claimed Price did not stop once they arrived at the party and even approached her and loudly said, “Anal sex!” in her ear.

Hackett reported the incidents to studio executives who brought in investigators to look further into the allegations, The Hollywood Reported added. Hackett said she was never made aware of the outcome but also said she never saw Price at any more events.

So, if had made the comments to a normal woman, this would not be causing a reactor core meltdown? That is how I read it, the outrage is due to her being homosexual.

Roy Price is getting married next month. His bride’s dress is designed by Weinstein’s wife. She’s a playwright and has sold projects to Weinstein Co.

Not to his co-worker or to a female employee.. but a married lesbian mom. No weird bias or agenda here folks.
Last time I checked, two women don't make a marriage and they have to buy children through artificial means (unless they had one before they switched teams).

Well, if I was not typing on my phone the word irresponsible would have been spelled correctly.

But, why should a man be dragged through that sort of accusation in the press without proof the allegation is true or corroborated.

There was an investigation at the time. Whether any evidence was discovered idk. A lot would depend, it seems to me, on whether any other women had complained about Price, or whether Hackett was the only one.

Nature hates a vacuum. So does civilization.

When one team refuses to fight back - or more to the point gets brainwashed into NOT fighting back because they’re afraid of being called a word - you get what we have now.

Time to stop being afraid of words and tell the freakshow to GFthemselves.

= = = = = = = = = =

Let me see now...

If I call a person a c-—sucker and he isn’t one it is OK?
But if he is one, I can get in trouble?

At one time them was ‘fighting words’, then is was defamation now the truth doesn’t matter.

Whatever happened to truth in ‘lending’???

I guess being ‘old’ has its advantages as it means won’t have to be putting up with this crap for so long.
