Linus Media Group CEO Terren Tong also responded via email, saying he was “shocked at the allegations and the company described” in Reeve’s posts. He went on to note that “as part of this process, beyond an internal review we will also be hiring an outside investigator to look into the allegations and will commit to publish the findings and implementing any corrective actions that may arise because of this.”

Jesus Christ you've got a problem. You're picking fights which aren't there.

You have to admit the timing is interesting. Why come forward now, perhaps, if it is true, she never would have felt comfortable coming forward unless she felt that there was public support. I literally think that is the only point the comment was making, and here you are, going off the rails accusing somebody of not caring. That is absolutely not what I read from the comment.

Thank you

I care a lot about this shit. I make damn sure I'm not toxic at work. Especially around women. I've worked as a minority as a man on teams and they are absolutely always just bracing for some dude to be a shithead to them. It's just constantly in the back of their heads, if not the front

I've been a part of a sexual harassment investigation as a witness to someone's terrible treatment and I hope my testimony helped get the guy ultimately fired.

It's something we all have to be good about and speak up about
