Sexual harassment? Isn't it a little more important that he's a corporate whore who is in league with the Maury Island rapists at gravel extractor Glacier Northwest?
then write about it.
@2. Um, she is?
Ugh, the last time I saw him in person--at a local officials event in Pasco--he was really drunk.
Go get the motherfucker, ECB. Seriously, this story has value and I hope The Stranger makes it a cover story.
Take a deep breath, do some real digging for facts,...and then write the best article you ever wrote.
There is no line between "OK sexual harassment" and "illegal sexual harassment". If it's sexual harassment at all, it's all the way.
Shoot first, ask questions later much?
How about getting the Times/PI on the record before making an accusation against their reporters/editors.
I'm not saying this isn't a story, but how about YOU dig up the dirt they failed to find and then run your own story, until then I won't hold my breath.
Best of luck.
What it sounds like from Grygiel's response is that they didn't want to crucify Sutherland in print based on a single incident that didn't rise to the level of illegality. You and I may not agree with that, but it is reasonable.
Isn't the Stranger a goddamn newspaper (of sorts)? Sure, it's a whole lot easier to crap all over the other papers in town for not doing a story rather than actually do it yourself. But isn't it embarrassing for you, since you consider yourself some kind of journalist?
If you think it's a big story (I don't, but that's neither her nor there) then go do it.
I think that you have to report on this. It's a scandal in a day and age where people spout off about sexism and racism as if they were a thing of the past.
Also, I agree with Fnarf. What's the actual legal standing for this, "ok sexual harassment" vs "illegal sexual harassment"?
The one time that I worked in an office where someone was fired for sexual harassment it was between two people who were in the same job and thus same position. There was no power play involved.
