Former Democrat Representative and Current MSNBC Analyst Harold Ford Fired from Morgan Stanley for Sexual Harassment

Party of Women, y'all!

Former Democratic Congressman Harold Ford Jr. has been fired for misconduct by Morgan Stanley after facing a human resources investigation into allegations of misconduct, a company spokeswoman confirmed.

...

In two interviews with HuffPost, the woman alleged that Ford engaged in harassment, intimidation, and forcibly grabbed her one evening in Manhattan, leading her to seek aid from a building security guard. The incident took place several years ago when Ford and the woman were supposed to be meeting for professional reasons. Ford continued to contact her after the encounter until she wrote an email asking him to cease contact.

The email, which was reviewed by HuffPost, shows that the woman emailed Ford after he repeatedly asked her to drinks. She asked him not to contact her anymore, citing his inappropriate conduct the evening where he forcibly grabbed and harassed her. Ford replied to the email by apologizing and agreeing not to contact her.

5 I'll admit, I have a speck of sympathy for Franken.

He's been accused of some chickenshit stuff compared to a lot of the others, but he's going to get run out of the Senate by his own party because they need to establish a new, much higher standard than they've been upholding up until now.

So he goes on the block, gets the public humiliation, and is standing there dripping wet from getting pissed on. If he weren't such an insufferable ass, I might not feel like laughing.

24 I'm going to admit that I'm so dim that when I saw he was fired for misconduct I assumed that meant he messed with money.

And, yeah, having to call for help from security is up there on the list of this isn't just a misunderstood unwanted pass.

know why but really, WTF?

2. Why can't entertainers all just
figure out the Swift method. Don't say much about politics politics,

35 Does anybody else wonder if all of these lib sites would go under if they weren't linked so much by conservative sites? Places like HuffPo and Wapo would probably fold within days if they weren't linked by Drudge, AoS and Townhall, etc. I have to think a good chunk of their traffic is due to that linking.

I tend to think there just aren't enough moonbats in the world who can stand to wallow in that insanity every day to support those lefty sites on their own. I just don't see the average apolitical or middle of the road person being able to stand reading that obvious tripe on a regular basis, or spending much time there.

The HuffPo crowd should be sending checks to Ace and Breitbart et al and thanking them for the clicks.

Seriously, though, I have to assume there was some discouragement before that email, or that the contacting took a major amount of time, and/or was pretty aggressive.

I mean-- I assume there's more here than him calling her, leaving a message, and then calling two days later, then getting a "stop it you loser" email. Right?

Maybe I'm reading more into it than you are but if I was meeting someone professionally and they grabbed me and wouldn't let go to the point I had to contact security and then he kept calling/emailing me asking to go for drinks (here's where I'm presuming she either said no or ignored it) to the point I had to email him and say do not ever contact me again, yeah, I would consider that harassment.

I'm a bit surprised others think that's no big deal.

Now, is it a firing years later big deal? That's not clear to me either.

But what he did is very much not cool.

I don't see the hanging offense here.

There's the "leading her to seek aid from a building security guard" bit, but that could mean anything. Like, "hey, can you pay attention if that guy hits on me again?" It's not automatically "hey security stop this guy from raping me".

To harass means to 'repeatedly' do something. At the first instance, it can not by definition be harassment. For example, the first time I drop a load of manure in your driveway it's not harassing. To do it more than once constitutes harassment.

She told him to knock it off but 'he persisted'. That's harassment of a sexual nature, aka sexual harassment.

Ya, if that's what happened, then it's bad. How do you contact security if they won't let you go? If they wouldn't let you go, why wouldn't you high tail it down to the PD once Security came and rescued you?

If it happened the way she described, I would think this was not good. Personally for me, I have a very hard time believing that a woman was held against her will and sexually jumped on, and then did not report it at the time.

Believe me (do not want to get into it here ) I cannot CANNOT wrap my head around the fact that a woman would perceive herself to be in such a hazardous situation, one that required a security guard, and then just went on her merry way, without a report to the police. I just can't imagine a woman doing that.

155 The email, which was reviewed by HuffPost, shows that the woman emailed Ford after he repeatedly asked her to drinks. She asked him not to contact her anymore, citing his inappropriate conduct the evening where he forcibly grabbed and harassed her...


This could easily mean he called her a few times and left messages asking her out, and eventually she emailed him to tell him "no" and that she was offended by his previous behavior. "Forcibly grabbing" is pretty vague (pretty much all "grabbing" could be considered "forcible"), so unless they release the actual email (not clear why they didn't) or add more details, I'm in the ho hum camp.

166 The Spanish colonists had a series of words to indicate with precision the nature of one's ancestry, all of which later entered the English language

Negro - two black parents
Mulatto - one black parent
Quadroon (originally "cuarteron") - one black grandparent
Octoroon - one black great-grandparent

What is this guy Harold Ford Jr. -- a one-sixteenth-roon? He's so white, he makes Obama look black! And he he's called "a prominent African-American politician" and calls himself "black"???

Sorry, white folks, but this guy is your responsibility. The Rachel Dolezal of molesting politicians.

177 Okay. Here's the thing. Don't try touching the boobs or the mish until after you've kissed the gal and she hasn't yelled at you. It's just common sense.
And if you've asked someone out for drinks, and he/she has turned you down twice, don't ask anymore.

Normally this stuff isn't a big deal.
However, workplace can be different, especially if you are in a position to hurt someone's promotion or employment. There is a big difference between a man asking a neighbor out for drinks, and a school principal hitting on a teacher, or an officer hitting on an enlisted woman.

In the Ford case, if she felt the need to contact a security person, the encounter may have been a bit too forceful. I've had men grab at me, where I felt no fear, nor felt any need to ask anyone for help.

* Gives AtC the high five *

As a former employer I did not have the dimes available to me to defend my impoverished company against sexual harassment suits. I tried repeatedly to bring this information down to a level that people (guys) understood.

It's not tough. Monica L. was not sexually harassed because she said, 'Yes'. That's not going to happen very often guys. Nor are you going to be POTUS that often.

You get the first contact -- which is either an implausible 'Yes' or a more plausible 'No'. If it's yes, you're okay for now. But persisting after the very first 'No' -- you're screwed.

214 If it happened the way she described, I would think this was not good. Personally for me, I have a very hard time believing that a woman was held against her will and sexually jumped on, and then did not report it at the time.

Believe me (do not want to get into it here ) I cannot CANNOT wrap my head around the fact that a woman would perceive herself to be in such a hazardous situation, one that required a security guard, and then just went on her merry way, without a report to the police. I just can't imagine a woman doing that.
Posted by: grammie winger at December 07, 2017 03:58 PM (lwiT4)



That is a different in kind statement from your prior comment that "If the woman asked that he not contact her anymore, and he apologized and didn't contact her anymore, I'm not sure what the charge is here."

That is not the sole allegation here. She said she contacted a security guard. That removes it from the realm of just a persistent suitor.

WHICH HAS NOTHING WHATSOEVER DO TO WITH IF HE SHOULD BE FIRED FOR IT NOW.

I'm capsing that because I do not want to be misunderstood here. I've been ringing the Satanic Ritual Abuse alarm for awhile and I think we are now 100% in that territory. It sounds like this was years ago and there are no other allegations and I'm not okay with him losing his job about this based on current information.

But blowing this off as oh he was just a guy who asked her out for drinks a few times and she said no and he finally listened isn't accurate at all.

I used to think the same thing. When in Congress, he seemed to be a bit more centrist and fair-minded than the average Donk. Yet, when he ran for Senate in '06 (and especially when he considered carpetbagging to run against Gillibrand in 2010), he took a decided turn to the left.

Basically, he's spent his entire political career lying his ass off about what he believed, just to get elected.

Sorry, white folks, but this guy is your responsibility. The Rachel Dolezal of molesting politicians.

Corey Booker is similar. Slightly darker than Ford, but he's got blue eyes. I'm sorry but when you have blue eyes--which most white people don't even have--you've passed....

235 It sounds like this was years ago and there are no other allegations and I'm not okay with him losing his job about this based on current information.

Shouldn't there be, not a statute of limitations, exactly, but some kind of "double jeopardy" thing where you don't get punished for a something that happened years ago that was dealt with then?

Like, if I'm late to work, I could get fired, okay. But if I was late to work a bunch three jobs ago, and was written up then, I shouldn't get fired now because my current boss just now found out about it.

Hypothetically, and I know this is more serious than my not being a morning person, but it's an analogy.

Not one of my better ones, but far from my worst.

249 I'm capsing that because I do not want to be misunderstood here. I've been ringing the Satanic Ritual Abuse alarm for awhile and I think we are now 100% in that territory. It sounds like this was years ago and there are no other allegations and I'm not okay with him losing his job about this based on current information.

But blowing this off as oh he was just a guy who asked her out for drinks a few times and she said no and he finally listened isn't accurate at all.


Well, I'm going to get in more trouble with you, because you deserve it. You have been at the forefront of the Satanic Witchhunt pushback.

She says he "grabbed" her. Note to everyone else in the thread, this could be a Michelle Fields Grab. She doesn't say he grabbed her boob. This has nothing to do with going for the boob before she's given you this kiss.

Maybe. We don't know.

Second, to everyone else who is wrong in this thread, there's a reason that security guards and police are different things. Not every incident that makes you ask the security guard to keep an eye on the groper is a *crime* for which you go to the police.

The two most important points here are (i) we don't know; and (B) the current climate is insane.

So we can pile on Ford because he's a D, or defend him because he's likeable (I like him), but mostly we don't know.

316 Truth be told, I'm suspicious that the first part of her complaint (the security guard part) is "embellished" to bolster the impact of the email part.

I have no facts to base that on. It's just a hunch.
Posted by: grammie winger at December 07, 2017 04:22 PM (lwiT4)


Fair enough. It's merely that makes it different in kind to me than just a guy politely asking for a date who has to be told firmly no.

I may also be overreading it because I assumed grabbed her and she got a security guard involved meant grabbed her and didn't let go until she called security which is not what it says.

Which, again, has nothing to do with firing him over this years later.

The rest of what Geraldo said was self-serving crap but his point about being highly skeptical of claims made after five years or so was a fair point, I thought.

328 the woman alleged that Ford engaged in harassment, intimidation, and forcibly grabbed her one evening in Manhattan, leading her to seek aid from a building security guard.

I know this doesn't really matter, but what does 'one evening in Manhattan' mean? On a street corner? In the lobby of a building? A bar in Manhattan?


Ford continued to contact her after the encounter until she wrote an email asking him to cease contact.

If he repeatedly called and left vm's or repeatedly e-mailed her and she didn't respond, did he not get the hint? She had to specifically write and tell him to cease?


And this is noteworthy from the article: "One woman heard from Fords accuser the night of the incident and described her as "distraught, shocked, and frightened," and said that she was concerned about any career ramifications should she report the incident."


And this: " Ford denied the allegations: "This simply did not happen. I have never forcibly grabbed any woman or man in my life. Having drinks and dinner for work is part of my job, and all of my outreach to the news reporter making these false allegations was professional and at the direction of my firm for business purposes.


So the woman was a news reporter? Hmmmm....

America has a habit of over reacting...

We allow shit to go on, until it hits a real explosive boiling point... then we over react... we go too far...

And then the pendulum swings back again.

Look at the roaring 90's... which led to prohibition... which led to Mafia... which led to Hoover...

We are now in the over reaction phase of sexual harassment. Folks in power (media, Hollywood, Government) allowed sexual harassment to go on for YEARS... knowingly covering it up...

Now... its over reaction time...

Which will soon lead to Men like myself (who is already there) saying... you know... if you didn't say anything at the time... then you just need to shut the hell up... which is of course... an over reaction to their over reaction...

439 oh oh oh oh story time!

So.

Gather around, Horde.

Is everyone comfy? We all have popcorn?

Okay.

So. Once upon a time, I was asked by a paralegal to talk to an adjuster because he wasn't understanding that our client didn't have a prior history of neck problems and I said sure. I get on the phone with him and said our client had no prior history of neck problems, I do not understand why you are claiming otherwise.

At which point, Adjuster Boy replied "Of course she did, it says right here in the records that she had a history of cervical cancer!"

I may possibly have taken the phone away from my ear and stared at it to be sure I heard what I heard.

Some back and forth ensued wherein I asked him if he understood that cervical cancer did not mean she had cancer of the neck and he insisted it did and I asked him if he had any female relatives and he demanded to know what that had to do with anything.

I told him to have his supervisor call me and he agreed, all in a huff.

The supervisor called back later that day and asked what the issue was, all still and formal and prepared to defend his adjuster. So I told him. And got "Oh, oh I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." I said it was fine but I was about to fax a page out of Gray's Anatomy over to the adjuster because, seriously. Seriously.

I would have loved to have witnessed the supervisor having to explain this to the adjuster.

Posted by: bluebell ~ let's get cooking! at December 07, 2017 04:50 PM (UoSKV)



I'll tell one on me:

A file came over from the pre-litigation department for me to prepare a complaint. It was motorcyclist vs. the semi that jackknifed in front of him.

I called over to the paralegal in pre-lit and said, all snotty, I've told you over and over again that in death cases you have to get the final police report that says fatality on it and you have to be sure the estate is opened before it comes over to litigation. Paralegal replied "But he's not dead." Me "Wut?" Her "He's not dead." Me "But he slammed into the semi." Her "I. Know. But he's not dead."

A variant of this conversation was had when I reviewed the file with the attorney who was going to handle the litigation and she started to wind up on and where's the estate and I cut her off with "he's not dead." "Wut?" etc. etc.

The attorney for the tractor trailer company called up to try to settle it and he said "I didn't see where the estate was filed." "He's not dead." "Wut?" etc. etc.

How that guy survived is still a mystery to me to this day, especially considering the amount of blood splatter that was in the accident scene photos.

Ryan Shazier. Very classy good guy, was born with alopecia (he has little to no body hair, including eyebrows, etc. ) He was taunted and bullied a lot as a kid and rose above it with the help of his parents. He was a standout linebackert at Ohio State and was drafted to the NFL in 2014 in the first round.
He created a foundation that helps kids and adults with alopecia cope , and often works with young kids on how to deal with others who are put off by the disease.

He suffered a spinal contusion in the lower back Sunday in the game against Cincinnati, and we haven't had much info other than it sounded like he had regained feeling in his legs prior to this surgery.

"Grab" is a charged word. What actually happened? In what way did he "intimidate" her? We don't know. And yet he is now ensconced in the Pervthion with Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, and Matt Lauer.

My daughter is all of 5-foot 2 and 125# soaking wet... and a TKD black-belt (2nd degree) - she would have made Ford, uh, hurt. Let's just leave it at that. And yes, there is at least one local boy here who knows that from, uh, personal experience.

I've been on just about every conceivable side of this issue. As employer, as employee, as father, as husband.

So I don't have any agenda. Just to warn my fellow members of the male gender -- if she does not seem interested -- please do everyone involved a favor and go away. Take a hint.

Do not pass go or collect $200 -- just go away. Nothing good will come of your persistence. There's still 49.99999999999% of the population that *might* be interested.

Even a reprobate like Bill Clinton hit the lottery.

Nobody becomes a 'euro-weenie gamma male' by finding lower hanging fruit. They're there.

May God have mercy on my soul.

What the heck kind of sales pitch is this, Agnew? I thought you were our PR person!

Now you really are a nattering nabob of negativism.

I beg for forgiveness! My concern was for only ordering two. My irrevokable resignation is tendered .

I apologize for the misunderstanding. It has been my task to make clear to everyone that this is an excellent cookbook. It has an eclectic mix of good recipes, good humor and never to be forgotten character. It has been compiled to appeal to a wide audience. I believed in this cookbook.
But I only ordered two. One for me and one for backup.
This is my failure. Asking you to do something and not following through myself.

I have family that would enjoy this cookbook. Friends. And I had forgotten them.

So am now dedicated to go do that which I had asked others to do. I will order more.

Do not let my failure keep you from gifting these wonderful cookbooks for others to enjoy.is

Once again, my apologies.

538 Once again, the 'unwanted' pass is not the crime. But to do it repeatedly is the crime.

Put yourself in the position of husband or father of daughter in a workplace where some creep is coming onto her and not taking 'No!' for an answer. Day after day, turning her life into hell.

Are you really okay with that?

I guess I must be as I finally relented and ended up marrying mine.

539 Annie's First Rule:

The whole world is High School. If you can survive that, you can probably survive most things that are referred to as "Those things that Life throws at you."



Thanks again, for the fine ONT, Ms Hum.








Comments tonight were in strong competition for one of "the best of the lot" awards. Many thanks to you all.




Off to purchase the cook book. Congratulations to Bluebell, to Weasel, and to.......agh......what was that other guy's name????




As to the rest, it is good to recall that it is the villain, Iago, rather than any virtuous soul, who points out
"Who steals my purse steals trash."

More first rules anon.
