Harvey Weinstein, Fired Amongst Sexual Harassment Allegations

It was heartbreaking really.

 

The documentary last night on Lifetime with some of the women was heartbreaking too. So many little girls abused by that creep. How he worked his way into their and their parents confidence by being the mild mannered friendly guy in a sea of tough coached, despicable.  It just reminds me of the insidiousness of sexual predators.

Ad Agencies’ Reckoning on Sexual Harassment Comes on Instagram, Anonymously

The advertising industry, expert in the art of attention getting, has found itself riveted in recent months by an anonymously run Instagram account dedicated to exposing sexual harassment on Madison Avenue.

The account, @DietMadisonAve, is advertising’s visual version of the Google spreadsheet that circulated last fall with the names of men in the media industry who had been accused of sexually inappropriate behavior.

Created in October, the account has more than 19,000 followers and says it is now run by 17 people. It drew a surge of interest after disappearing briefly on Monday, just as a group of women in advertising wrote an open letter condemning the account’s “bullying tactics.”

^^^ Big problem for children to deal with. And the adults in charge played pass the responsibility for providing school as a safe space.

 

And where was the supervisory function of the teachers/administrators?  This boy was assaulting multiple girls in the class and playground and no one noticed? What was the rank of the boy's military parent?

They noticed. Then swept it under the rug. Nobody wanted to be the one to deal with it or they were scared to, so they looked away or explained it away.

These stories are so repetitive, over and over, men in authority preying on young girls, the girls are intimidated ino silence, when the girls speak up no one wants to believe them, when the parents do listen they complain to the authorities who then serve to protect the institutions rather than the girls so nothing gets done. The predator is allowed to repeat his crimes until the sheer number of victims is too much to hide.

Then it all explodes.
