I hate all that CNN stand for. That being said...
In the social setting there are certain cues and testing of the waters that happen. As much as I hate sexual forcing and rape there has to be steps that are taken before you continue to further things. I’ve put my arm around young ladies and might have touched a leg or two in making a conversational point. I have been rebuffed. And I have been invited. (I did none of these things to my working subordinates. Though I have done these things to a working superior... once) But this is all part of social interaction. (PS I’ve been married 39 years and have t done of what I speak for over 39 years....I suppose things change)
That was old times. I will have been married 40 years next month.
I would never even touch a coworker, much less a subordinate!,......................
CNN was CIA TV from the very start.
CNN is ATT
A young lady with more education than I was showing me around a piece of equipment that I probably knew more about than she. But she had the title I didn’t. So she had a higher rank.
A year later we were married.

>>>>>>>>>>
That being said, you still go to bat for cnn.
Sad.
No. I go to bat for normal encounters between men and women. You know like it used to be.
Lighten up.
How is this different than giving global warmers a pass for jetting around the world?
I expect neither of us gives a flip who jets where, but would you give them a pass? I suspect you would call them out on their hypocrisy. I sure would.
Why give cnn a pass when they are among the most guilty in condemning normal interactions between men and women?
Who’s giving anyone a pass? This #metoo. Rap is what I’m against.
