NPR的Tom Ashbrook也被停职了?
他每天两个小时的On Point经常听到。前年老婆也癌症去世了。政治立场是左棍。前几天还听他在讲这个性侵风暴的事情。结果现在自己被反性侵风暴吞噬了。这个运动越来越像文革了。
NPR's Tom Ashbrook suspended amid 'creepy' misconduct
allegations from men, women
The longtime host of one of NPR's most successful programs has been
suspended while the network investigates sexual misconduct allegations.
The allegations against "On Point" host Tom Ashbrook include that he engaged in "creepy" sex talks and gave unwanted hugs, neck and back rubs to 11 mostly young women and men who worked on the show. They were
contained in a document and confirmed in multiple interviews by WBUR-FM, the Boston station that produces the show.
Ashbrook was put on leave last week.
In a text to the station, Ashbrook said: "I am sure that once the facts come out that people will see me for who I am — flawed but caring and
decent in all my dealings with others."
"On Point" is carried by more than 290 NPR stations. Ashbrook has
hosted for 16 years.
NPR's chief editor, Michael Oreskes, also recently resigned in the midst of sexual harassment allegations of his own, along with Chief News Editor
David Sweeney. Earlier this month, famed "A Prairie Home Companion" host Garrison Keillor was let go from Minnesota Public Radio for the same
reason.
Another recent bombshell report to rock the liberal radio network said NPR
journalist John Hockenberry had sexually harassed and and bullied colleagues for years before he retired, seemingly out of the blue, in August. The
article's author, Suki Kim, said she reported her experiences working
with Hockenberry to Walker in February, long before the tidal wave of sexual harassment stories, starting with Harvey Weinstein, began.
