Mike Malloy - Ken Starr Resigns As Baylor Chancellor After Sex Scandal Cover-up

[hschulein]

Kenneth Starr, known for leading an investigation of President Bill Clinton, says he has resigned as Baylor University's chancellor.

The private Texas university has been rocked by an independent report that found the university mishandled allegations of sexual harassment and assault. Last week, the university stripped Starr of the presidency and suspended head football coach Art Briles.

1. I remember when Meineke Muffler franchisees had a $601,000,000 judgement against the parent

corporation and Ken Starr was the attorney representing Meineke Corporate and their parent company GKN (British company) on the appeal. When he walked in the all Republican 3 judge appellate panel fawned all over him. His opening remarks were, "While I cannot condone what my client did (they stole us blind), the Class was improperly grouped... They threw out our judgement only because of this asshole hero to the right.

I hope he gets sued for everything he has over this!

3. Starr was able to keep his job as a law professor at Baylor. So he's

not receiving any legal punishment and continues to teach law!
What does that tell you about learning the law at Baylor?

4. This was my first reaction.

One would think Baylor would want him far away, but maybe they can't get rid of him as he is tenured. Anyone know how that works?

5. Well, maybe if there is enough public outrage...

6. I doubt there will be much outrage from the fans since many of them simply don't care.

This has been going on for decades at other universities as well, and it will undoubtedly continue to go on and on and on for many more. Pity the future victims.

Although there are individuals who speak out against these scandals, there isn't a mass movement to reform the rape culture that is and has been associated with football. The prospects of future reform seem to be hopeless. Just the inevitability of more of the same sort of corruption.

7. Karma is a bitch

Couldn't have happened to a more duplicitous hypocrite.

8. I have one final comment to make after hearing news reports on the radio about this scandal:

We live in a society in which boys who have no interest in sports are likely to be marginalized or even bullied while so many people (including some liberals!) are in complete denial about the rape culture that is associated with football and other extremely popular school sports. Apparently, it's just too much to expect most sports fans and boosters to ever treat school athletes as human beings instead of objects of worship.
