This woman comes out and accuses Chris Cuomo of sexual harassment, while she was his boss, then proceeds to built up a narrative that he's a serial sexual predator. This whole thing is bull#### and nothing more than an attempt to smear Cuomo. How do we know this is the case? Because in the immortal words of Catherine Alvarez in Disclosure, sexual harassment is not about sex, it is about power. When did Chris Cuomo have the power in this allegation? He didn't. She was his boss. She had the power. Her claims are bull#### just based on the definition of sexual harassment. This is a hit job and nothing but a blatant smear campaign.

I'm all for giving women a voice and allowing them to bring matters forward, but the pendulum has swung way too far and we are now allowing women to make allegations in the public rather than through proper channels and all it does is taint or destroy other people's (mostly men's) lives. Even after the allegations are proven false. I feel for women who have suffered through harassment, just like I feel for the men who have been unjustly accused of something they did not do. Rose McGowan was a hero for exposing Harvey Weinstein and did great things for the abuse women take. But then you have women like Leeann Tweeden who crossed the line the other way, ruining Al Franken over a joke while the guy was a comedian. Unfortunately, these allegations must be vetted as they are made and you just can't believe something because it comes from a woman.

Yikes.

Cuomo is a creep and his sexual harassment of his boss was all about power. He wanted to prove she had no power because she’s a woman despite being his (former) boss.

"When Mr. Cuomo entered the Upper West Side bar, he walked toward me and greeted me with a strong bear hug while lowering one hand to firmly grab and squeeze the cheek of my buttock," she wrote. "'I can do this now that you’re no longer my boss,' he said to me with a kind of cocky arrogance."
