to the Democrats in general and HRC in particular today. I wonder if CNN et alia are going to call out the New York Times for its part in enabling a powerful sexual predator to continue victimizing women.

Senator Richard Blumenthal has already said that he is donating his portion of the funds to the Connecticut Alliance to End Sexual Violence. I hope others follow his example.
