This is the "I can't be racist because my best friend is black" defense. It's hard for me to see where all the McClure defenders are coming from. Is it that hard to see his actions in this specific instance as being (wildly) inappropriate? This is basically textbook sexual harassment. Just distill it to the basic facts: 1) Job applicants comes to interview for a job 2) After the interview, McClure contacts her over FaceBook and not-so-subtly propositions her in relation to her goal of getting hired How is this at all defensible? EVEN if the job applicant was overtly flirty, how is messaging a job applicant over FACEBOOK and saying what McClure said at all appropriate? At the very least, McClure is, as he would say a "fucking" dumbass, at worst, a sexual harasser. I 100% bet he's done a lot worse and knowing other partners at 500 Startups, it frankly doesn't surprise me at the least.
