>US author and radio host Garrison Keillor has been fired from his radio station amid a claim of misconduct. >Mr Keillor told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that the claim stems from an occasion when he put his hand on a woman's bare back to console her. >"I meant to pat her back after she told me about her unhappiness, and her shirt was open and my hand went up it about six inches [15 cm]", he told the newspaper in an email. >"She recoiled. I apologised. I sent her an email of apology later and she replied that she had forgiven me and not to think about it," he added. >"We were friends.

Does this scare you? It fucking should.
Chase Wood
>get shitcanned because you patted somebody on the back 15 years ago and they took it the wrong way
They just want white people to stop talking to eachother altogether at this point
Brody Nguyen
What really pisses me off is that these men have no backbones and never decide to refute the claims.
Shouldn't you fight for your career & livelihood just a little bit? Especially for something petty like in Mr. Keillor's case.
Blake Powell
>liberals >fighting for anything
Alexander Murphy
he's old and retired all ready and hasn't got time for this shit. He mentioned her lawyers contacted him so I guess there is a lawsuit coming and he will get a chance to explain.
Cameron Rodriguez
This.
Why would they fight for anything. They hate white men and want to see them removed from all positions of power or leadership. As far as they're concerned, they're just trendsetters leading the way.
Evan Bell
This isnt indicative of anything except the morbid fixation americans have with lawsuiting each other out of the ass for anything they can.
They are a sick, decadent society that shouldnt be taken as parameter of anything.
Ryder Ross
>They just want white people to stop talking to eachother altogether at this point Bingo. The point is to make people feel (and in fact be) completely alone in the world, so you can do anything to them.
William Williams
>"I meant to pat her back after she told me about her unhappiness, and her shirt was open and my hand went up it about six inches [15 cm]"

Caleb Evans
Heh. Posted a similar thread on Sup Forums earlier tonight.
What bothers me most about this incident is that they're following a zero tolerance approach.
But how is what Keillor did in the same boat as others? It just seems so unfair to go from 0-60 like that.
And meanwhile, Trump gets to still be President. Fucking blows my mind.

You are mentally ill
Owen Campbell
this is what happens when you are employed by spineless liberal cunts
Julian Nelson
We need to believe women, which means we need to disbelieve men. Keillor isn't telling the whole story. Wait for her side to come out. I'll bet he showed her his shriveled lutefisk-scented dick.
Connor Parker
Do women understand the joke that they are becoming?
Ian Scott
That's why I never went to Lake Wobegon
Angel Foster
My hunch is that his defense of Al Franken might've triggered one of his colleagues, ergo the harassment claim.
Anthony Torres
>Do women understand the joke that they are becoming? No. They just understand that they have total power over men now.

GOOD FUCKING LORD
Dylan Harris
I'm related to him by marriage.
He's my biological aunt's husband's cousin or something.
Angel Hughes
Because he actually fought back against his allegations
Jeremiah Nelson
How is this related to Television & Film?

Robert Altman directed a film adaptation of A Prairie Home Companion in 2006.

False. Women conform to society better than most men. If society tells them to kill their children and call their boss a rapist, they'll do it.
Henry Wood
How am I wrong? It was printed yesterday. Clearly it triggered her.
Adam Nelson
this. they are a gas that fills whatever shape society is currently in.
Aaron Gomez
I put my hand on my ex's back and pulled her shirt up a little bit during a long hug once as a flirt. She didn't seem bothered by it and we're still friends to this day.
How fucked am I?

Does he have the email to prove it?

Robert Perez
>Does this scare you? It fucking should. It does. I wouldn't want someone who looked like that touching me either. EWWWWWW
Cooper Sanders
It doesn't scare me. Only faggots in the first place want to do anything with females in the workplace. I treat them exactly like I would treat a guy and they screech and hiss and try to start pointless drama while doing only 78% of the work a man would do so why the fuck would you interact them. And what was he doing consoling her? Why would you do this?
Jack Harris
Yes they do user and they are smarter than us
Charles Turner
They tried to do it to Trump and it didn't work. Now they've moved on to softer targets.
Jonathan Cox
Let's be logical for a second. It's either a failed pass or exactly what Keillor says OR something in between. It doesn't sound like harassment though. If she or her legal team can't prove it in court, he should counter sue and more importantly, go after MPR for lost wages. Doesn't matter how old and retired he is, a false allegation is a false allegation.
Owen Robinson
Yes but they don't care because you are not allowed to laugh at them in public anyway
Liam Young
Another one bites the dust.
Ethan Green
I'm not even surprised anymore. If the news came out tomorrow that Mr. Rodgers had a sex dungeon filled with underage Asian girls he raped every night I'd just shrug my shoulders and go "ok"
Daniel Baker
they've always been a joke, people are just realizing it again
Colton Cooper
They want women to have all the power, the power of ruining your life.
That's really the end goal of feminism.
Kayden Watson
Dude you're falling right into the feminist trap mindset. Maybe take a second and actually read OP.
Ryan Fisher
If that one famous person didn't get fired for fingering the make artist whose husband died to console her, why should he.
Juan Gomez
It's the nature of the media business. Everyone knows it's cutthroat and that you can lose your job in the blink of an eye like this. The rest of us retain much more job security working in our boring jobs.
Jacob Nguyen
completely
Austin Garcia
and they will win
White men die, Black and Mexican men are next and soon get of Muslims by dropping fucking nukes and on the Mecca too. Asian will die last but they will have a sex change to become women.
Thus Female age begins.
