It came at a huge personal cost to Hill, as her character and the veracity of her testimony was called into question.

But despite all of that, yes, she would do it all over again, she said Wednesday at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit.

Hill’s conversation with author, comedian, and actress Chelsea Handler comes amid a renewed national dialogue about harassment as several women have come forward accusing Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump of sexual assault—accusations Trump has denied.

Gee, who do you suppose the article doesn't mention any of the women who've come forward about Bill Clinton?

If it weren't for double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.

“She was waitressing?”

Good guess, but I think her duties were limited to the restrooms and windows.

doing an interview with the low-life sleaze ball Chelsea Handler is like doing an interview with Howard Stern.

Anita Hill has no standards.

Did she lose a job?

Nope, she was kicked upstairs to the University of Berkeley, then to Brandeis, Where she got a tenured faculty position. She had national level articles published in major outlets, sweet book deals, and face time on national media.

Some punishment!

“Average” annual salary is $168,920. Hill probably gets quite a bit more as a “Distinguished” Faculty Member.

A Supreme Court Justice gets $223,500.

Doesn’t Fortune have anything else to spend money on than pumping up the egos of aging feminists who should be spending their waning years in repentance and prayer before they are called before the judgment seat of God to answer for their sins against society? They could be using that money for research that increases the number of cockroaches in government housing.

She is doing nothing more than reinforcing the definition of insanity.
