    I didn't look at the video @Martin Alonzo but what are you trying to prove here...I'm not following you.

    When it comes to sexual assaults I think the media has been pretty fair...both sides are getting reported.

    Seems all of Hollywood has been in the news this last month.

    As for Roy Moore...what I have read about him...I wouldn't vote for him...too far right for my taste.

    The media are the biggest shit stirrers of the 21st century. Rather than report the facts, they will create a witch hunt and report supposition as facts, just to sell copy.

    The old adage, 'why let facts get in the way of a good story', is never more true.

    True but all I'm saying is that the sexual assault stories are on both sides of the aisle...can't say they are playing favorites...look at Weinstein and Spacey.

    And they have admitted it so it was/is true.

    When the story comes out with no proof except what a person says the proof has already been debunked but that does not make it into the story. His opponent has been charged and is in court right now about sexual problems but where is that in the news? The New York Times offered a lot of money for anyone to come forward and it will not be checked out. I am not on one side or the other just saying if both are guilty of something why do you only hear about one and it does not need to be fact.

    I don't know that much about the Roy Moore case so can't really comment.

    When it comes to men and sexual harrassment I will have to admit I am biased because no matter where I worked, etc. there was always a man making a "pass" at me even though I gave them no reason to do so.

    So I have no reason to doubt any of these women's word against Judge Moore, etc. To many men still see women as nothing but sexual objects...now they are being set straight about this and hopefully all this being brought out now will make men think more with their brains...then with what is in their pants.

    I know women who have been offered thousands of dollars would not lie. Especially when they are told we will not check out your claims. Even when the person they are lying about is on the other side of politics.

    I think what he means is that the liberal media is determined to bring Moore down. They went hunting for ammunition to do it with. They came up with these women who, for a price, "Opened up" about "Abuse" that happened long ago. They never said a word until the media looked them up.

    He dated an underage girl. She willingly went to his house and let him feel her tits. Inappropriate, probably, but it happens. She says that that is responsible for all the "Bad choices" she has made in her life. Apparently, she has made a LOT of bad choices. I seriously doubt that they were caused by that event.

    Most of her claims are falling apart but that did not stop the media from calling him guilty without checking out her story. He has been tried in the media and no one check for truth. The timing is perfect to kill his election what a coincidence .

    There are women who will say whatever someone wants them to say or do for the right amount of money. Yet there is also the fact that men have taken advantage of women both in the past and now and gotten away with it. There was not cell phones back then that could record what was said or even take pictures for evidence back then. So the only "proof" is the person's word on what happened. And as a woman who has "been there" before...I am glad to see women, etc. coming forth about what these men, etc. have thought they got away with.

    And this is one time I'm glad to see the Media "exposing" them.
