This is not going to be a popular oppipion here, but when does this start being a witch hunt? Disgruntled employees sending anonymous tips to Arianna Huffington

This is not going to be a popular oppipion here, but when does this start being a witch hunt? Disgruntled employees sending anonymous tips to Arianna Huffington over seeing employees make out at a party. There was no evidence of misconduct, yet they printed the story and included the "incident".

I'm not sure what you think "evidence" is, but eyewitness accounts are traditionally considered evidence.

  you left out a word "credible" for eyewitness

  So kissing at a party which was most likely consensual is now evidence? Give me a break. You do realize that inter-company relationships and hookups happen all the time right? How is two consenting adults sexual harassment? This is still innocent until proven guilty right? Maybe not.

    On what basis do you establish "most likely consensual"? If the makeout partner was a subordinate, they may very well have been coerced, EVEN in a setting such as that. Risk takers thrive on risk taking behavior.

      > On what basis do you establish "most likely consensual" It says so in the article.

        Um, no. "most likely" != "apparently" > There was no suggestion of any sexual harassment on his part and the encounter was apparently consensual.

    Nitpick: I think you mean to say "intra-company" here.

    This allegation doesn't even scratch the surface on this guy unfortunately. He's scum.

There are huge amounts of misconduct on his part. Just bc an article doesn't specify it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. There are large amounts of information that media or external parties will never know about. This is a pretty obvious point. Read between the lines. And no, I'm not speculating. I know first hand, unfortunately.
