    You mean like a college football coach who sends a kid up on a scissor lift on a violently windy day?

    "You have to be great to be here. You're obviously not great."

    "What are you stupid, Stupid?"

    Tell me those aren't Nick Saban quotes.

    We love tyrants.

    I actually have never heard Saban yell at the unpaid players. But I don't put it past him, because he's a prick.

    But I have seen Brian Kelly do it. Time and time again. He's in the Weinstein position, and the players are in the PA position.

    Jim Mora Jr. is another one.

    I don't love those pricks. I hate them.

    I think it's that Americans will ignore a lot when somebody produces a great product or something that makes us happy/keeps us entertained.

    This is a pretty good grilling of NPR’s boss by one of his employees. Can’t imagine other news orgs doing this.

    Gonna really piss off @YankeeFan when he gets caught up. Puts a real damper on the FoxNews whataboutism he was diving headlong into.

    He is keeping up. He's still posting. He's just using the trip as an excuse to duck things like this.

    I don't know if we're supposed to "give credit" to the media companies suddenly severing ties with people named as harassers/abusers, considering their actions often pre-dated their initial involvement with these media companies.

    Jesus flippin christ, oop.

    Yes, I'm sure this whole Paris trip ruse is merely YF's sneaky way of dodging the tough questions from SJ hard-hitters like you.

    In French this would be ...

    Jésus renversant le Christ, oop.

    Oui, je suis sûr que toute cette ruse du voyage à Paris n'est que la manière sournoise de YF d'esquiver les questions difficiles des durs-frappeurs de SJ comme vous.

    And then when you run Google's translation back thru itself ...

    Jesus overthrowing Christ, oop.

    Yes, I'm sure all this trick of the trip to Paris is just YF's sneaky way of dodging the tough questions of SJ hard-hitters like you.
