It's cool that this is finally happening, but much like Black Lives Matter, I fear that this is the media using the hype of anti-Trump-ism to finally let a few stories through the cracks that would otherwise be stifled airtime-wise.
Cops haven't suddenly changed to be 'the good guys,' nor has any real reform been seen. People of color are still, and perhaps moreso now, are still subject to the law enforcement of America... it's just last year the cameras seemed to care more.
This will go on for another month but I'd imagine by the new year, the media will move on to cover something else that gets big attention as a moral issue, and then forget about it.
That's the interesting thing to me about all of this - that we're looking at power dynamics between individuals and finally exposing them, and hopefully doing the best to tear them down. Yet the true power dynamic is between the cultural narrative at large and those responsible for overseeing the systems that perpetuate it.
Weinstein is probably the only name on this list that matters to anyone outside of the individual victims, because it isn't just a guy losing his career but an industry taking a hit. That shit doesn't happen much.
(For those who might say "But social media will care ...", I'd say that there have been many mass shootings that social media cares about that the powers that be stop the flow of information for.)
- It has nothing to do with trump. He was accused of sexual misconduct by 20 women though.monospaced
- You don't think the media hype of left-populist stories in the past year had anything to do with the shock of the election?colin_s
- Like I'm as far left as they come and this is popcorn season in terms of watching the powerful eat shit, but there's obviously more than retweets happeningcolin_s
- maybe but I recall this kind of hype for years on both sides ... I wouldn't give so much credit to how low trump has set the bar for human decencymonospaced
- I think it more has to do with news directors using anti-Trump stories as tentpoles for ad revenue. But I'm cynical as fuck about the journalism industrycolin_s
- they weren't starving for ad revenue before Trump ... he simply gives them a lot of shit to report on, because he's an ass clown of epic proportions, daily.monospaced

Bryan Cranston says we should be open to forgiving Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey
https://www.avclub.com/bryan-cra…
"“His career now, I think, is over,” actor Bryan Cranston said recently of Spacey, in an interview that captured what a lot of people seem to be feeling. “He’s a phenomenal actor but he’s not a very good person... It would take time, it would take a society to forgive them, and it would take tremendous contrition on their part,”"
- Someone get my torch and pitchfork.pango
- fuck all thatGuyFawkes
- If they turn their lives around and do something good for society, sure. No reason to forgive them just because.bainbridge
- ^ yeah how do you measure progress other than "not do it again".cannonball1978
- Don't think Cranston said anything outrageous here - certainly not in keeping with the headlineFax_Benson
- Weinstein might go to jail too.bainbridge
- They're both multi-millionaires who don't have to work if they don't want to.bainbridge
- After he serves his time then the public might consider forgiving him.pango
- I think Cranston makes very obvious statements when really the press are the one's sensationalising things. "It's a societal problem, not just Hollywood"Ianbolton
- If we're never going to forgive them, or at least learn from their mistakes we may as well bring back the death penalty!!Ianbolton

Taxpayer piggy bank lets Congress settle sexual harassment cases in secret
WASHINGTON — A senior Senate staff member is accused of trying to tug open a junior aide’s wrap dress at a bar; she said he asked why she was “holding out.” A former aide says a congressman grabbed her backside, then winked as he walked away. A district worker said a House member told her to twirl in a dress for him, then gave her a bonus when he liked what he saw.
As the nation at large deals with lurid stories of sexual harassment, Congress is only beginning to grapple with tales of sexual aggression that have long been fixtures of work life on Capitol Hill. On Tuesday, the Committee on House Administration will convene a hearing on harassment in Congress, putting the halls of the Capitol under scrutiny alongside the hotels of Hollywood, the kitchens of New Orleans, the board rooms of Silicon Valley and the suites of New York’s media giants.

This has been a watershed few weeks as far as women coming forward...and rightly so. But I think it also changes the landscape somewhat...from this point on, you would hope that any woman that has been assaulted goes to relevant law enforcement authorities before they go to the media. Otherwise it will just be seen as a cynical attempt to gain notoriety.
- It would be nice if the accused start being held accountable in a court of law and not this public opinion / you're fired shit. But that would require an...PonyBoy
- ... adjustment in Statute of Limitation laws.PonyBoy
- That's a good point you make BusterRamanisky2
