In Reply To: i'll say what every one of my posts has said so far. that she has the possibility of a lawsuit and that if MS doesn't take really good care of her (which I suspect they will and which I suspect is why they bothered to respond to the NY post) there won't be a suit. i also think you are a very silly person for again equating what you claim is her true personality and her supposed lack of intellect and ability with the right to sexually harass her. i'd love to work in your shop. "hey girls....since you're all so stupid, we're going to let the weather man say some HIGHLARIOUS stuff to you on the air. But don't worry. the laws don't apply to you" oh...and it's just weather man schtick...so again. the laws don't apply. you are very silly and I doubt you believe what you write. my guess is you are someone either in the employ of mr imus or an old pal of someone on the staff trying desparately to come up with some justification for what is undeniably unjustified (no matter how little you think of ms. brewer-who as I said in an earlier post-I don't think much of as an anchor)
Message: Folks please let me explain this to you. Imus in the Morning is not your newscast. It's not the weatherman making comments about the co-anchor. It is Tina Fey making off color comments about Matt Lauer. If you think there will be a lawsuit you are in such a different world I don't know where to begin. There won't be a lawsuit and Contessa will just learn her lesson not to make comments to Page 6 (intended or unintended.) She can be sue for insubordination, so she better be careful or else this really could turnmuch uglier for Contessa Brewer. I don't work for Imus or Westwood One. I just find great humor in the fact that everyone is up in arms about this since she was the one who started with the comments.
