kind of rationale. Sure, I can see it. Mark was probably somewhat deferential to her and of course Joe was always there so he didn't make a move on her. If it weren't for Joe Mark probably would have made a move on her. But I think figured Joe would punch him in the face if he did...

That's a running narrative in many (not all) of these reports.

(12,624 posts)6. Yup thats the problem. Not the men who abuse,
but women who should have done something about it.

(20,440 posts)8. Not to defend her, but, how do you know she didn't?
She wouldn't make accusations on air.....
Maybe she has been going at it with msnbc executives, maybe not, but you'll never get that info. And really, that should not be on air until formal charges are raised.
I don't want anyone where I work just spouting what they think is true about me: These things have to be handled professionally.
