From the article it sure seems that way! He was good at keeping up a dignified facade on camera while walking around buck naked in front of his employees and touching them. GROSS.

And I know what you mean -- working in entertainment, I've heard a lot over the years. I wasn't surprised by many of the names so far, and I'm pretty sure there will be a lot more coming out as these stories unfold.

I'm really surprised about Charlie Rose. DH loves his show and he always seemed so refined & intelligent & therefore above that behavior. I'm kind of losing the tendency to be shocked anymore.

If you watch "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" you wouldn't be surprised by Charlie Rose. They've had 2 segments with the creepy things he says to younger women on camera.

Four women have accused Mario Batali of sexual misconduct over the past two decades, according to a report Eater published Monday.

The chef and restauranteur allegedly groped all four women without their consent and repeatedly behaved inappropriately. Three of the women worked for Batali, and the other works as a chef.

Batali is taking a leave of absence from his position at Batali & Bastianich Hospitality Group, a management company that supports over 20 restaurants. ABC has asked Batali to step away from “The Chew,” the daytime show he co-hosts, according to Eater.

Batali told the publication in a statement that the allegations “match up” with his past behavior.

“I apologize to the people I have mistreated and hurt,” he said. “Although the identities of most of the individuals mentioned in these stories have not been revealed to me, much of the behavior described does, in fact, match up with ways I have acted. That behavior was wrong and there are no excuses. I take full responsibility and am deeply sorry for any pain, humiliation or discomfort I have caused to my peers, employees, customers, friends and family.”

I feel like this stuff is rampant in the restaurant industry. Late nights, alcohol, etc. I thought his statement, which was more than just the quote above, was one of the better ones I've seen.

“I have work to do to try to regain the trust of those I have hurt and disappointed. For this reason, I am going to step away from day-to-day operations of my businesses. We built these restaurants so that our guests could have fun and indulge, but I took that too far in my own behavior. I won’t make that mistake again. I want any place I am associated with to feel comfortable and safe for the people who work or dine there.

"I know my actions have disappointed many people. The successes I have enjoyed are owned by everyone on my team. The failures are mine alone. To the people who have been at my side during this time — my family, my partners, my employees, my friends, my fans — I am grateful for your support and hopeful that I can regain your respect and trust. I will spend the next period of time trying to do that.”

I don’t really care about his statement because that doesn’t make anything better. I do want to say this is all over the restaurant industry. I was in it for 10 years, and so much grabbing and harassment.

Mario Batali

As many of you know, this week there has been some news coverage about some of my past behavior.
I have made many mistakes and I am so very sorry that I have disappointed my friends, my family, my fans and my team. My behavior was wrong and there are no excuses. I take full responsibility.
Sharing the joys of Italian food, tradition and hospitality with all of you, each week, is an honor and privilege. Without the support of all of you — my fans — I would never have a forum in which to expound on this.
I will work every day to regain your respect and trust.
-mb
ps. in case you're searching for a holiday-inspired breakfast, these Pizza Dough Cinnamon Rolls are a fan favorite.


And he had a link to the recipe at the bottom of the page.

For the record the statement that came with the recipe was not what I was referring too. That one makes me take it all back.

The ones that haven't been publicly accused:
* Bryan Singer
* Dan Schneider
* James Woods
* David Geffen



Dan Schneider is one that really needs to be exposed. He is a HUGE executive at Nickelodeon who is responsible for MANY of their tween hits. If you watched Head of the Class back in the '80's you may remember him as the big guy who sat in the back of the room.

This article lays out many of the incidents that have been whispered about through the years and that are pretty damning if true. Just looking at the photos of him with girls in the article is pretty upsetting. It would be HUGE if victims started coming forward about this, because it seems pretty obvious that Nickelodeon and its parent company, Viacom, have been covering up for him for years.



And the freaking Hungry Girl (Lisa Lillian) is married to this nasty man. He looks like the biggest creepazoid. He also has a foot fetish and used his shows social media accounts to get pics of fans feet (no really). He is disgusting.

Pretty much every man in Hollywood is terrible at this point.



HOLY SHIT
I knew nothing about all of this. I'm down a rabbit hole now reading all about it.



ME TOO!
I've spent all morning doing nothing but reading about this disgusting pig.
If all of these allegations are true, this man, and all of the parents of these children, should be LOCKED UP. I know money can be blinding to some people but holy shit. How could you turn your head to the stuff happening to your own child?!?! Horrifying.




I went down that rabbit hole with you both!! Omg. I don't know any of these shows but I do remember him from Head of the Class now that I saw his pic. Some of those clips in the tweets are very sexual for kids shows.....I believe this is probably all true about him. Disgusting pig.



Just thought I'd share an update on Dan Schneider...looks like he and Nickelodeon are "parting ways."

Either they're sweeping it all under the carpet or the sh** is about to hit the fan. I'd like to believe the latter, but I don't have my hopes up, there's too much money at stake.

So glad he's finally getting the boot. He's as bad as Weinstein and I'm surprised it took this long b/c he was messing mostly with kids instead of adults (like Weinstein).
