Media Equalizer and Media Equality Project Co-Founder Melanie Morgan has come forward to recall her own frightening encounter with Franken.
Morgan, who was a ABC Radio talk show host for KSFO / San Francisco at the time, appeared August 19, 2000 on ABCs late night show Politically Incorrect.
She was joined by Franken, William Baldwin, and then-Colorado Lt. Governor Joe Rogers on the panel.
I made a statement about the budget numbers, Franken challenged me, I challenged him back. It was about spending priorities, actually just a mundane discussion. But he obsessed over it.
After the show, Morgan said Franken wouldnt leave her alone, insisting on continuing the argument.
He approached me backstage, angrily called me out on those numbers and insisted he would prove he was right. He wouldnt leave me alone, he kept following me. As a woman, his presence and proximity to me felt very threatening and intimidating.
I didnt realize his creepy behavior after the show meant it would continue in the days to come.
He approached Carol, the shows producer and demanded my home phone number, which was a clear violation of network protocol. I had thought that was the end of the story and was shocked when he started calling my home, badgering me repeatedly.
I became fearful and called Carol to complain and asked her to tell him to back off. But he made another call after that. I thought that he might end up stalking me at my home in Northern California, it was that bad.
By the third phone call I was outraged and terrified, as he is really disturbed, Morgan recounted.
Morgan said Franken finally left her alone, but only after she pushed back and threatened to call the police and make a report that he was harassing me.
To this day, she says she is haunted by it: I never forgot that experience and it informed me of his lack of character and obsessive personality. I believe every word Leann wrote.
