re: If you're going to fire a man over a single allegation...

As much as I am enjoying the shaming of the left by application of the same standards to it as they have applied the political right, I have to disagree.

Details should be reported. Not names. You want to fire someone, and then make it public that you did it because he committed a felony? you best be sure to expose the details (ie the facts and evidence supporting your opinion). Otherwise - you’re reporting your opinion as news.

The Media wants to think it has some kind of
Legal authority that other private citizens do not. Members of the media have no greater authority than regular people. Employers, no matter who they are have no right to blab about the employment decisions they make. And they have no right to accuse someone of a crime.

A television network is not a court. It has no greater free speech rights than I do. They need to stop acting as if they are. Posting half information like they did - doesn’t do actual victims any good, or the accused any good.

It just creates a witch hunt against men who live in a free country. And that is bullshite.
