A jock explains his jockery

IMAG0407

I will be honest from the “git-go”.

I don’t like Scott Brown.

I watched how he slowly sank into a simpering jock who had to accept that he might not get what he wanted when he said he wanted it, and, rather than attack Elizabeth Warren on policy ideas, chose to call her names that he obviously felt encourage to use since Howie Carr used them.

The closer the election got the more tantrums he began throwing.

I also thought that he was getting progressively more desperate when he realized that once out of the adoring shell of high school, not everyone simply kowtowed to jocks.

That being said:

When former Fox News host Andrea Tantaros filed her sexual harassment lawsuit against the network and several senior executives, she described encounters with Scott Brown on the set of Outnumbered and in the company’s cafeteria that she said were part of a culture that tolerated sexual harassment.

The suit claims that Brown allegedly told Tantaros on set that she “would be fun to go to a nightclub with”, and later came up behind her in line for lunch and put his hands on her lower waist.

He is not a defendant in the lawsuit, but is only cited as an example of what went on because it was assumed to be acceptable, and not only did no one care, but some of the higher ups were guilty of the harassment themselves

“I was flabbergasted when I read it,” Brown said.

With what he claims were no fewer than 25 people on set at any given time, including producers, he stated that at no time did anyone raise any concerns. An odd defense since Tantoros’s suit says that such things were overlooked if not encouraged, and no one spoke against, or defended those who did speak against harassment..

Some doctors, particularly psychiatrists whose job it is to prescribe medications, will tell you that you need to do something about tadalafil cipla 20mg it when it is too late. “They’re not shy. If I did something inappropriate or wrong, they would immediately fire me. I’m not that important when it comes to the whole hierarchy at Fox News,” Brown said.

His other defense was that as an alleged victim of child abuse himself, he would never engage in it as a perpetrator.

“For somebody who’s a survivor of sexual abuse myself I take these issues in particular very, very seriously, so I would’ve never helped perpetuate an environment or a conversation or a situation as she’s alleging because of my own personal experiences,” Brown said.

Verbally demeaning treatment was obviously all right with him judging by comments he made about and to Elizabeth Warren.

Brown wrote in his autobiography that he had been abused by a summer camp counselor on Cape Cod as a 10-year-old.

Let me mention here that the first time his own alleged abuse was mentioned was when he wrote his autobiography.

I am aware of the trauma caused by child abuse and that victims are often silent, but it seems odd that the first time he mentioned it was in a book with which he intended to make money and garner votes for a political run. In the meantime, even in the Massachusetts legislature he took no previous actions to address a problem he wrote about, and when questioned on why he had said nothing until he could profit from it and did not do anything to address the problem, he pointed out that the perpetrator was dead and following up would have been useless, although establishing if the problem was systemic might have been helpful for other victims.

Brown is now working more than ever for Fox and has signed a new contributor contract that included a raise.

To him this is proof he had done nothing.

As far as having the opportunity to grope Tantorros, Brown explained,

“There’s no intermingling. There’s no yucking it up, that sort of thing. The last time I was in a club, a dance club, was 30 years ago.”

Wha?
