NBC Reportedly Paid Settlement to Former Employee Who Accused Chris Matthews of Harassment
by Ken Meyer | 1:06 am, December 17th, 2017
A new report states that NBC paid off a former employee who claimed she was sexually harassed by Chris Matthews when she used to work on his show.
According to The Daily Caller, a former assistant producer for Hardball spoke with network executives in 1999 and complained about some sexually-charged comments Matthews made about her. The report states that Matthews was “formally reprimanded” after a review on the matter, but even though his remarks were considered “inappropriate” and “juvenile,” the network determined they were not intended as propositions.
Nonetheless, two sources told Daily Caller that the network paid Matthews’ accuser $40,000 to settle the incident.
NBC addressed the report by confirming that there was a separation-related compensation involved when the woman left the network. However, the network disputed the $40,000 figure, insisting that the package was actually a lot smaller than that.

The primitives are defending Tingle Britches. I didn't think that they ever really liked the guy all that much since so many of them call him Tweety--whatever that means--but in this thread they are clearly defending him.

1. Mike Cernovich, the other right wing nut jobs and Russian
Bots pushing this HARD on Twitter. I am being very cautious with this one.
The Russian Bots are pushing it on Twitter so Tingle Britches gets a pass.

7. Smells like another organized campaign
The harassed woman should have suffered her harassment alone and in silence.

12. If he does this on live tv I can only imagine what
he does with the office door closed.
Post is accompanied by a video of Tingle Britches perving out on some poor woman. Lots of examples available on the internet of Chrissy perving out, ogling, and saying creepy things to women on his show.

16. Investigating claims of it.
The case was investigated, the woman's claim was confirmed, she was paid off and sent packing, the whole matter was swept under the rug, and Tingle Britches got to go on like nothing ever happened.
