Eight women say Charlie Rose sexually harassed them — with nudity, groping and lewd calls
Washington Post ^ | November 20, 2017 | By Irin Carmon and Amy Brittain

Eight women have told The Washington Post that longtime television host Charlie Rose made unwanted sexual advances toward them, including lewd phone calls, walking around naked in their presence, or groping their breasts, buttocks or genital areas.

The women were employees or aspired to work for Rose at the “Charlie Rose” show from the late 1990s to as recently as 2011. They ranged in age from 21 to 37 at the time of the alleged encounters. Rose, 75, whose show airs on PBS, also co-hosts “CBS This Morning” and is a contributing correspondent for “60 Minutes.”

There are striking commonalities in the accounts of the women, each of whom described their interactions with Rose in multiple interviews with The Post. For all of the women, reporters interviewed friends, colleagues or family members who said the women had confided in them about aspects of the incidents. Three of the eight spoke on the record.

Are there any female gropers?

Gimmie a few million bucks in government grant money, and I shall thoroughly research the issue.

Wow, now they are even after Charlie Rose. If anyone had told me 2 months ago that all these liberals would be outed for their sexcapades, I would have recommend they visit a shrink. 8>)

This news is revolting — like when I found out “On The Road With Charles Kuralt” involved more than just his travels as a seasoned journalist — he was having a long affair ‘on the road’, too, all over the USA.

Gee the left attack on men is sure taking out many of their own. I am not surprised if true.

That doesn’t mean that he cannot be accused. In fact, being dead makes it easier to accuse ‘im!

Might as well declare every male in the US as a groper

I am starting to think that's the end game here. Force as many straight males as possible out of politics and media so that they can be replaced by females (which will inevitably mean a hard-left turn).

The phone rang. Kermit answered. The caller asked to speak to Miss Piggy. Kermit said “She can’t talk right now. She’s got a frog in her throat.”

Always thought he was a smug, self-righteous prick.

Adios.

Seems like the more self-righteous these dudes are the more they are pervs. What a pack of hypocrites. More popcorn...it’s only just started.

They’re willing to throw a lot of people under the bus to get Moore and Trump. Then after a few years all but Moore and Trump will be rehabilitated.

Cecelia Vega, ABC, hinted on This Week that the media is rife with casting couches. In 1980, ABC reporter Hughes Rudd advised my wife that to achieve network prominence, be ready to submit on the couch.

No surprise here. Hypocrites. There's a gazillion media stars, anchors, news directors, etc. holding their breath. In fact, from this point --when a network personality has been accused--look for coverage of Moore, Franken, et al to suddenly go quiet. Glass houses.

I worry though, that natural flirting aggression is in danger of criminal status soon.

The only sexual harassment I’ve ever seen has been from women directed at me - and it was a really long time ago. I was weak and gave in to their advances. It was horrible....

A famous line from the 1913 poem by Gertrude Stein:
