Geraldo Rivera is apologizing for calling the news business flirty in the wake of Today show host Matt Lauers firing by NBC over sexual misconduct allegations.
The Fox News reporter tweeted Wednesday that the sexual harassment issue is so red hot right now there is no room for any thought or opinion but hang em high. He added: If News wasnt (formerly) a flirty biz then how do we explain so many newsroom courtships that have led to happy marriages?
Rivera also suggested there was a slight chance that those making allegations were motivated by big money settlements.

Geraldo needs to watch it himself he gets a bit too cozy with the female staff when he makes appearances he’s always seeking the hug & kiss in front of the cameras.

There IS a difference between being a philanderer and a predator.
One is legal, the other can be criminal.
I would hate to see people convicted for LEGAL activities.
If what Lauer’s accuser said is true, why is he not being charged with rape?

Give him chance to retire now, else fire him this afternoon. Send Juan, Shep, and Brett, Parino, and others with him. Anyone that participated in or knew and ignored or covered up sexual predatory behavior should be gone. Great opportunity to clean house. CNN could use this as opportunity to get rid of Don Lemon and mothers. Maybe MSNBC could get rid most of its staff. Wow, a real end-of-year cleaning...
Probably take longer with congress, need to get that list of 260+ settlements out first.

19 hours ago - In 1991, Geraldo Rivera published a memoir called Exposing Myself, which, per the Washington Post's review of the book, promised to reveal what “his public was dying to know about his alleged conquests of Bette Midler” and other luminaries. In the above clip—recently tweeted by reporter Kinsey ...

I suspect that anyone who describes Lauer’s behavior as “flirty” and “courtship” has already sailed that ship.
It’s just a matter of time for Geraldo - that stupid tweet probably ticked off somebody somewhere.
To: Spruce
Yep.
Probably makes Weiner look like a Rabi

Come on women tell us all about jerry rivers PLEASE! Would love to see him fired from FOX! He should have been fired for giving out the plans for our troops during the Iraq war.
Or that one video on him diving behind a rock acting like he was taking live fire when he wasn’t.
Please take jerry rivers off of TV!

I’m surprised the tidal wave hasn’t hit Shep yet.
There’s something about his eyeliner that sets off my creep-o-meter.

You know Clinton and his bad behavior, no criminal behavior with women, gave these presstitutes permission to emulate their hero, and the liberal women who remained silent about President Clinton's transgressions were obliged to go along if they wanted to keep working.
Trump's defeat of the Hideous Hillary put an end to the age of sexual abuse in the liberal workplace, and these women whom were targeted have freed themselves and are coming forward in droves.
Shoes will drop like manna from heaven.
All the monkeys do not live in the zoo and all this Clintonian sexual behavior will out the simians.

Maybe it’s the old ‘I know what am, what are you?’ thingie.
It plays out as...
I am a lover.
You are a philanderer.
He is a predator.
I am a connoisseur.
You are a tippler.
He is a wino.
I am forthright.
You are blunt.
He is a blowhard.
