denying it in full was expected. Now she needs to bring the receipts if she wants this to go anywhere.

Thank you!!! Many take stories at face value and ran away with it as if truth is self evident. Please people, let's all remain impartial and refrain from any condemnation or Judgmental statements .

Be honest. Are you a teenager? My goodness. Between this and the LeBron hairline thread, time to mute you.

Amazing that people think there is actual justice in the justice system. How many instances of the abused not getting protected do you need to see before you wonder why people don't take that route? Women who are the victims of sexual assault or domestic abuse in particular. Look at USA gymnastics, look at the thousands upon thousands of rape kits that go untested. These individuals have cold, hard evidence and still nothing gets done often times.

Also amazing that people believe that multi million dollar corporations go by the letter of the law at all times even if it could protect themselves.

Just looking at her other tweets she looks like a huge feminist man hater. I don't believe her. Who goes on twitter about this and not the police? If she can't convict him I hope she get the same punishment as he would have for committing those crimes. I'm tired of these gold diggers rubbing innocent peoples names in the mud and getting away with it.

In any other organization the person would be on a leave of absence or at the very worst, fired.


It's beyond weak. For an organization that puffed out it's chest having a BLM painted bus, hiring a diversity coordinator and having gender diversity in the corporate structure this taints it all and makes you really wonder about their motivations.


The organisation have stated they support “the process” not the man. That process is a legal one and is exactly the correct response. The organisation knows more facts about this than anyone in the thread. The court of public opinion is not where this should be settled. If there is evidence or a criminal charge forthcoming it is in the hands of prosecutors. If there is a slander lawsuit forthcoming against the accuser then so be it. This assumption based on a spurious allegation on social media that an employer now should act outside of the law is just absurd.


Agreed. Anyone can throw out allegations left and right. #MeToo was a BS movement, full of hypocrisy from those that supported it.

This is not like Ray Rice where there was evidence to to support the case, let the courts handle this.

Surely the police are better equipped to handle this? Otherwise cancel culture should wear a badge and carry cuffs

So she didn't file police reports? I get women not reporting rapes because they won't be believed, but physical violence creates evidence. If she didn't report at the time, there's not much to go on here.

And yes, the US justice system is racist. If there is a chance to fill a spot in their for-profit jails, they will take it.


I know a few women who get abused, or have gotten abused in past relationships (physically and/or emotionally), and they've never reported their partners to the police (despite suggestions from family and friends). One of them even had a recording of her husband verbally abusing her and threatening her with violence on her phone. She deleted the recording instead of going to police. She says she "bears the abuse for the kids" (who are adults and have themselves volunteered to report their father, but she pleaded with them not to...). I don't get it, but there is clearly some psychological element at play in a lot of abuse cases that keeps women from going to police.


Yes, I can see that happening. It really limits what people can do to help, even when we believe them.

This is just it. Nobody has said Griffin should be fired or is guilty, just that we should listen to her.

The only concrete statements being made are those people who are saying she's a gold digger. Basically the equivalent to bashing a sexual assault victim when they come forward.

Thanks for having sense Duffman. Troubling posts in the thread. Thanks for standing up to ignorance.

Goes on twitter to smear his name so that she can indirectly influence the judge into winning alimony. Classic gold digger. Go to the police not twitter.

Woah hold on there my man, just to be clear I fully support #MeToo it should happened decades earlier and was very happy to see some of societies most prolific misogynists get what they deserved in court and help draw a clear line in the sand for future generations.

On this isolated case however there are many apparent reasons to not jump to any conclusions and to let the ongoing legal disputes play out. One twitter post should not lead anybody to be calling for the lynch mob.

"she seriously needs to let it go".

I guess you don't have daughters you piece of ****.

Oh, if I had a daughter and she told me her man/husband was abusive I would 1) pack her **** for her 2) beat his ass.

I will, however, never tell her to go publicly and shot him down.

You call me a piece of **** all you want, but save it for when you need to explain yourself If you ever get caught in your lowest moments.

She is seeking revenge, but it's ok because she wants to bring up incidents that have nothing to do with what's going on now. Especially considering she goes out of her way to mention all these media members in her tweet.

I don't support people seeking revenge.


You're a piece of ****

The reason people are saying she is a gold digger is because she went to twitter with it. If you're victim go to the police not twitter. People who go to twitter are trying to wreck someone's public image usually in hopes of winning a court case. The fact that she is trying to get alimony supports the gold digger claims.

The Atlantic is a left leaning publication. One thing that I've learned over the past view years is not not trust the media which is 90% left leaning, not one ounce. There is zero integrity in journalism and in the media these days. Totally biased and agenda driven.
