  • New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo – He's Not the Worst #Metoo Man but His
    New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo – He’s Not the Worst #MeToo Man But his PR is Near the Bottom Andrew Blum When you look at all the #MeToo men who did bad things to women – and some to men – there are gradations of evil. Al Franken is not Harvey Weinstein, and Louis CK is not Jeffrey Epstein. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a relatively recent addition to the #MeToo list, acted very badly to 11 women, according to a just completed investigation but he’s not worst. What he is horrible at was spinning the probe and its findings. All during the investigation, he held public events like nothing was wrong, often not letting the press attend or ask questions. Then on August 3, after New York Attorney General Letitia James released a 165-page report accusing him of the sexual harassment, he released a pre-recorded video in which he showed no remorse, did not apologize, issued a flat-out tone-deaf denial, made no admission of his behavior, and sounded like he never heard of #MeToo or sexual harassment. He refused to resign. This prompted all his local, state and federal allies among Democratic Party officialdom, voters, unions and donors to all but desert him in the face of almost certain impeachment by the state legislature. They all called for him to resign – right up to and including President Biden. About the only person who said Cuomo should not resign was Rudy Giuliani! I think it is because of the #MeToo movement and thePR ramifications of the bad behavior of powerful men of his ilk that Cuomo received such a public and political rebuke of his actions after the report issued by the NY Attorney General.

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

The Rules of #MeToo Jessica A. Clarke† ABSTRACT Two revelations are central to the meaning of the #MeToo movement. First, sexual harassment and assault are ubiquitous. And second, traditional legal procedures have failed to redress these problems. In the absence of effective formal legal pro- cedures, a set of ad hoc processes have emerged for managing claims of sexual har- assment and assault against persons in high-level positions in business, media, and government. This Article sketches out the features of this informal process, in which journalists expose misconduct and employers, voters, audiences, consumers, or professional organizations are called upon to remove the accused from a position of power. Although this process exists largely in the shadow of the law, it has at- tracted criticisms in a legal register. President Trump tapped into a vein of popular backlash against the #MeToo movement in arguing that it is “a very scary time for young men in America” because “somebody could accuse you of something and you’re automatically guilty.” Yet this is not an apt characterization of #MeToo’s paradigm cases.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.

Sanders is top draw for undecideds; Palin a turnoff West Long Branch, NJ – With the presidential nominations in place, speculation about potential running-mates has ramped up considerably. The Monmouth University Poll tested 12 possible vice presidential picks – six from each party – and found that most would have no appreciable impact on voter support. Two names do stand out, however: Bernie Sanders, who could attract undecided voters to the Democratic column, and Sarah Palin, who could potentially hurt the GOP ticket. Scores of names have been mentioned as possible running mates for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. The Monmouth University Poll decided to test 12 of them – six Democrats and six Republicans – for their ability to attract voters to the parties’ respective tickets. On the Democratic side, only Sanders, Clinton’s primary opponent, registers any notable impact. Overall, 39% of voters nationwide say they would be more likely to vote for the Democratic ticket with the Vermont Senator as Clinton’s running mate compared to 20% who would be less likely to support this pairing. Among those voters who are currently undecided or are leaning toward supporting a third party candidate, fully 50% say they would be more likely to support Clinton if Sanders is her vice presidential nominee and just 16% say they would be less likely to vote for this ticket.
