		<description>[...] During a discussion in this The Daily Bellwether post, I raised the issue of not enough women being in the media as being partly responsible for the constant emphasis on the frat boy goings-on in the Ohio AG offices&#8217; latest tribulations and the lack of stories or focus on how hostile work environments related to sexism, especially with this month being Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

		<description>Well, Ben - here&#039;s what angers me:

1) the conduct alleged to have occurred: I&#039;m angered at the men invoved and I&#039;m quite curious to hear more about the women&#039;s situations - how compromised were they? how lured were they?

In other words, what the f was going on there?

2) Dann has talked before about how he has kids, has daughters, has a wife - he should be absolutely positively OUT FRONT and firing everything he has at these men and he&#039;s not

3) the media - the media is doing NO ONE any favors by dealing out the alleged details over and over.  It only serves to cast dispersion on the women as much as the men - we already KNOW that Dann&#039;s got serious problems hiring people who can follow through with integrity.

Why can&#039;t they use this as an opportunity to explore and cast light on: how often does this happen? to whom? what is the impact? what are the usual results?

So yes, I am angry by the coverage, but I&#039;m also angry about the underlying issues raised by the allegations and the media&#039;s failure to explore those - beyond those that look like they could get Dann out of office.  Like that is news? Please.

And the irony of this being Sexual Assault Awareness Month? And that I&#039;m working with the head of the Glenn School&#039;s Institute for Women, Gender and Public Policy to get more Ohio women into politics when all this crap is going on?

Yeah. I&#039;m pissed.

Thanks for asking, Ben. :)</description>

		<description>Who would be responsible to conduct an investigation?   

Then would we stand behind that investigation or describe it as faulted?    

I believe that our society has the mechanisms to deal with wrongs.  There is always the default or a method of higher escalation.  We all have to decide as individuals our paths. 

I believe that when issues are brought into the media they are more about public opinion than problem resolution.  These matters at hand need to be resolved internally; seriously, an independent internal investigation should be able to resolve this.  I also think that the details/statements published before hand is  unprofessional  

I like to see a gag order and a through investigation.</description>
