In an industry filled with dadholes, he generally seemed like not an dadhole. It's pretty surprising.

do you have to pay taxes on settlement money?that's $768k once you count legal fees.Damn....$1.28 million/victim.
It could have been as much as $960k if they would have used a Pittsburgh law firm that only charges 25%.

i think you do on punitive damages but I haven't had to deal with that as of yet
Today's Harrassment Claims
Yes, punitive damages are taxable. Compensatory damages for physical injuries including those that lead to emotional distress are not taxable. Injuries that are purely emotion distress with no physical injury element may be taxable.

In the few travelog shows he's done over the years, where you see him operating out in the world and not just in the curated environment of a TV kitchen, there are glimpses here and there of chauvinism. When 'On The Road Again' (let's rent Mercs and drive around Spain for a month!) first came out ten or so years ago, I remember there being a few moments where Mrs Tif and I were both like, '...ew'.In an industry filled with dadholes, he generally seemed like not an dadhole. It's pretty surprising.
The last time we were in Seattle, we went to Salumi (his dad's sandwich shop) and ended up having lunch with a dude who I think was his uncle irrc. He seemed like a good dude. So I feel okay returning to Salumi, but I've deleted the trip to Babbo in NYC that I've wanted to make since 2002.

You can't taste sexism.I kinda do, actually. I have like 8 or 10 of his cookbooks, and I learned to cook from watching Molto Mario. It's sad learning someone you respected is such a doosh.

Depends on his enthusiasm I guess.
Today's Harrassment Claims
My enthusiasm? Or the enthusiasm of the chef imparting el sabor de acoso?

The second one, similar to that liquification thing you mentioned earlier.

Liquefaction. Get it right, squirt.

Eight women accuse Morgan Freeman of inappropriate behavior. They say it happened on movie sets, at his company and in interviews. https://cnn.it/2klLN0X

I remember rumors from years ago about Freeman having an inappropriate relationship with his step-granddaughter, who was apparently murdered in 2015 by her ex-boyfriend who testified in court that the rumors were true. Him being inappropriate with young women isn't all that surprising unfortunately.

Maybe I'm missing something, but this all seems pretty soff...I guess I don't know the degree of it, fine...but we're talking about 60 year old adults and someone getting yelled at...and then Bateman falls all over himself to go all Jerry Springer Final Thoughts (bonus points for "mansplain", that's gonna hit the target audience right in the fun button) in his follow-up tweet...seems like a mix of "soft" and "unnecessarily dramatic" from this outsider's point of view...

Because of the nature of the allegations, the statute of limitations does not apply.
Today's Harrassment Claims
Yeah. Curious to see what kind of evidence is introduced at trial, if there is one. That's a pretty stale case.

Fast-forward to December 2017, when Mr. Spurlock issued a #MeToo mea culpa titled “I Am Part of the Problem,” detailing a lifetime of sexual misdeeds. As a result, YouTube dropped its plans to screen his “Super Size Me” sequel, and other broadcasters cut ties. But overlooked in all this was a stunning admission that calls into question the veracity of the original “Super Size Me.”
