Not an easy call


According to numerous sources talking to Joe Pompero at Vanity Fair the NYT is torn about whether or not Glenn Thrush should be fired for sexual-misconduct allegations. NYT is conducting an investigation. The problem they're having with accusations that Thrush hit on women in their 20's when he was drunk and married besides, is that the incidents reported occurred when he worked for Politico. 

Either way, stay or go, it's hard to care. Whatever is felt occurs in the gut, not the intellect nor the heart. Lower gut. Very lower. Lowest of the gut. The Ace of Spades writers have an hilarious expression for this hard feeling, schadenboner. They kill me.

Ah, yes, the double standard.

Because his intentions are good and he does so much for the agenda.

Well, they are just allegations. Perhaps they should wait on making a major decision until some official judgement is made.

Nah...

Then they would have to admit to a standard that could cause them not to win a Senate seat. Or, they fire him for such allegations, which could cause them to lose a Senate seat.

They were warned that they wouldn't like the new rules, which are the old rules they foisted on us all these years, but not foisted on them.

Thrush is the NYT pit bull on Trump. That's their dilemma.

I hear that Listerine is great for removing Oral Thrush.

He has the same facial hair and baldness pattern as Louis CK. Coincidence? I believe it was Lenin who started this style. It was Lenin's most enduring contribution to civilization. It makes bald men with pudgy faces look decisive and smart.......Thrush lied about women he knew to cover his ass. Does the NYT want such a liar on the payroll? On the one hand he's a skilled liar, and that's always an attractive quality for a NYT reporter, but, on the other hand, he was found out so can we really say that he's such a skilled liar.
