BREAKING: FIVE Women Accuse ABC News Exec of Sexual Harassment…

First it was "HarveyWood"..with dozens of women accusing Harvey Weinstein and other liberal Hollywood executives of sexual harassment and assault.

Now five women are accusing one of the most powerful journalists in the news business -- liberal Mark Halperin, of horrifying sexual violations.

Halperin is former Political Director for ABC News, a frequent contributor on CNN, ABC, NPR and MSNBC, and is also the bestselling co-author of "Game Change," which relentlessly bashed Sarah Palin and Republicans after the 2008 election.

From CNN:

Veteran journalist Mark Halperin sexually harassed women while he was in a powerful position at ABC News, according to five women who shared their previously undisclosed accounts with CNN and others who did not experience the alleged harassment personally, but were aware of it. Widely considered to be one of the preeminent political journalists, Halperin, 52, has, among other career highlights, been political director at ABC News; co-authored the bestselling book "Game Change," which was made into an HBO movie starring Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin....

But women who spoke to CNN say he also had a dark side not made public until now. The stories of harassment shared with CNN range in nature from propositioning employees for sex to kissing and grabbing one's breasts against her will.

Three of the women who spoke to CNN described Halperin as, without consent, pressing an erection against their bodies while he was clothed.

It seems an overwhelming number of these harassers have Jewish last names: media and Hollywood?

At least most of those fellows at CNN won't have to worry about these kind of charges being brought against them, as they are all fags.   (Unless the boys bring charges against them...)

don’t feel bad about watching the entertainment industry (includes media) implode, because they are still trying to twist the narrative.
in Australia today - on billion-dollar-plus-taxpayer-funded ABC, no less -

26 October - ABC TV Breakfast - George Clooney links Harvey Weinstein scandal to Donald Trump, Fox News personalities

not even sure ABC was actually talking to Clooney themselves because you can’t see the interviewer in the clip on Twitter, but you can link to the above story from here:

Twitter: ABC News Breakfast-TV: George Clooney details what he knew about #HarveyWeinstein, and why he believes the story goes beyond Hollywood http://ab.co/2yR5oyo
TRUMP, FOX ETC
ONE REPLY ONLY: Joe: Great he gets interviewed for his new movie and this is what you put up.
https://twitter.com/BreakfastNews/status/923376417932320769?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet

this is the only other time I’ve seen anything similar from Clooney:

10 Oct: Daily Beast: Marlow Stern: George Clooney Speaks Out on Harvey Weinstein: ‘It’s Disturbing on a Whole Lot of Levels’
Q: Those on the right, from Fox News to Donald Trump Jr., have used the Harvey Weinstein news as a cudgel against liberals. It’s a bit rich on Trump Jr.’s part, given the numerous allegations against his father.
CLOONEY: Yeah, that’s a little pot and kettle there, unfortunately. But I think that everything gets politicized these days. The reality is that this is a problem deeply ingrained in our society. It was something that was talked about a lot on the left with Roger Ailes, Bill O’Reilly, and Donald Trump, and it’s something that’s going to be talked about a lot on the right with Harvey Weinstein...

the age of celebrity is coming to an end.

This isn’t fair. I feel like there’s a buffet in front of me and my tummy won’t hold it all. The Russian Dossier, the Uranium One scandal, the systematic takedown of some of the most disgusting slugs in Hollywood, the exposed Deep State operators soiling their trousers at what’s coming, their media connections checking the flights out to countries with no extradition treaties... “Here it is, Monsieur Drill, just one wafer-thin mint, go ahead...”

Mr. Halperin was just decapitated by Alinsky #4 - "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules."

I have no idea if these claims are true, obviously, and I certainly don’t want men being falsely accused of sexual harassment simply because it’s trendy, but...I’m glad it’s a Palin-hating d-bag in the hot seat. Let the pervert sweat it out!

I think others coming forward emboldens those who felt they couldn’t come forward. Some of the accusations may not rise to the level of assault, but they still have no place in the workplace, and are considered harassment. I’m sure that there are plenty of women (and men) who feel that if they had come forward with accusations at the time, they would lose their livelihood, plus be ostracized or even blacklisted. There’s safety in numbers.
