This comes via a Corner reader (I was not listening):
Listening to NPR this morning on a story re: the vote to confirm the gay
Episcopalian bishop. Evidently, accusations arose yesterday involving
“homosexual harassment” and “improper touching” by the nominee, which
delayed the confirmation vote. Not only did the NPR reporter not
attempt to shield the alleged victim’s identity, she went out of her way
to mention the accuser’s name — several times.
Although it is not a case of alleged rape, it is certainly alleged
sexual misconduct and an interesting line to draw. Not surprisingly,
she not only mentioned the man’s name, she openly questioned the
“timing” (and thereby the veracity) of his accusation — something
apparently acceptable if a gay bishop or a Democratic president is
accused of sexual misconduct.
