In my very first posting on my BLOG on June 22, 2015 I discussed Bill Cosby and the sudden emergence of a number of women charging him with various incidents of sexual harassment. Before proceeding on to a number of observations about the situation I was careful to point out that I had no way of knowing the truth of the charges and neither did almost all of those who were taking positions for or against the ‘Cos.’ I also wrote that the case would wind its way through the courts of both public opinion and legal justice. Until then I advised everyone to reserve judgement.
I think the very same admonition should apply to the case of Roger Ailes. Until all the facts have been adjudicated, let us all “cool our jets.”
