She is no media icon. She is not on talk shows. She does not have a book. Why do you make shit up all the time. Facts do not matter to you?

She is a media icon and that's a fact. I did NOT say she is on talk shows or has a book. I said that is coming and i stand by that. You are the stinking liar who makes stuff up.
 
OPie keeps bringing his Mommie and Daddy issues to the forum as if this is the Dr. Phil show or something!

What a sick fuckstick! Lol!

For obvious reasons SI isn't saying how much they're paying her but this should make all decent people sick. She should be a national pariah for making no-evidence accusations of sex assault against kavanaugh. Expect her to write books and go on the lecture circuit too. Maybe her own tv show.

I don't know what's worse: Blasey-Ford presenting the award or Denhollander receiving the award.

STFU.

Why would I do that? My pointing out such truths provokes endless whimpering from the weaker members of the forum, and that amuses me. Sorry -- you can plead for me to shut up as much as you like, but it's not going to happen. Your humiliation is just too delicious.

Ford has made a fortune off her no-evidence accusations

Sworn testimony is, by definition, a form of evidence. She offered it. And most Americans believed her. If that leads to her being rewarded in some way for her courage in coming forward, good. Certainly the rape apologists are going to try to destroy her for daring to speak out, so it's a good thing if there's some counter-balancing good coming into her life as a result of her heroism.

It's actually encouraging to see how these things tend to play out. When a woman has the audacity to say things that makes limp male wingnuts demand that she "STFU," it often starts a pile-on of personal abuse from the right (Anita Hill and Sandra Fluke being two other prominent examples). The hope of those dickless male conservatives is that if they call her a slut enough times (or maybe a "tranny-homo" if we're talking the stupider end of the conservative spectrum), they can damage the woman enough that future women will be intimidated and won't dare to speak up in such situations. But that terrorism tends to backfire. The sheer viciousness of the attackers causes all decent people to align behind the women, and they wind up in a much better position than if they'd just shown up, given their testimony in a respectful setting, and then moved back into obscurity. That in turn sets off endless whining among the impotent male conservatives about how these women became "rich celebs" -- and that whining, too, is a kind of reward.
 
Notice the tv nets aren't mentioning this. After all the coverage they gave her evidence-less accusations against kavanaugh, now that Ford is cashing in, the press turns a bliind eye.

What makes you think I went to law school? Just because I'm far more knowledgeable about the topic than you doesn't mean I have any special training in the area. There are common garden slugs that are far more knowledgeable about the topic than you.

What a weird little world you live in. Of course they gave ample coverage to her accusations. It was obvious to all informed people at the time that the Kavanaugh vote would come down to a margin of just a few votes one way or the other, and could hinge on reactions to her testimony, so her testimony was an extremely news-worthy event that could influence the course of one of the three branches of government for decades to come. By comparison, the question of who stands behind the podium to read the presentation of an award is not newsworthy. Sure, it has inspired lots of crying jags among the troglodytes of the extreme right wing, who hate to see good things happen to good people. However, there aren't many of them, and they're already well-served by "news for imbeciles" sites like Breitbart, so there's no need to feed them in the reputable press.

Have you ever heard of paragraphs, maybe you're trying to channel Gonzo journalism with your stream of consciousness screeds?

I use paragraphs when they're warranted. However, since I was only presenting six mostly short sentences, breaking it down into two or more paragraphs wasn't necessary. That would have left me with three-sentence paragraphs, which is really at the low end of what is appropriate.

Have you considered looking up the word "screed"? You used it wrong. It refers to a longer speech or piece of writing. What I wrote was only 154 words. That's long by the standards of, say, a first-grader. However, at an adult reading speed, it's about thirty seconds worth of text. Nor is this "stream of consciousness" writing. It builds its argument in a linear and organized manner.

Yeah - that's what chrissy SAYS. "I took all the loot and gave it to a good cause". HAHAHA. What else can she say? We want evidence but again chrissy doesn't deal in evidence.
