What I am surprised by is the fact that the witch hunt is being directed at a guy who isn't white.

I'm surprised Ghomeshi hasn't called the women and the reporters racists.

I guess it's back to Bollywood for him.


You realize he's Iranian, right?

I don't care where he's from.

He's a guy who likes to beat up girls. That makes him garbage.

Yes, I agree. However you just told an Iranian to go back to Bollywood. That is being quite ignorant. Maybe you should go back to your version of Bollywood. Where you have turned an enormous thriving and impressive industry into some kind of insult. Go back to the Apollo missions you douche! Go back to the emancipation proclamations you ass! Go back to Trafalgar you nut!

None of those sound quite right. Maybe the sane and normal response would be; I hope he never finds another public job if the allegations are true and furthermore if true that one of the victims does come forward tot he police so an actual criminal investigation can begin.

Thank you

This thread is hilarious. The race bits anyway.

These women need to take him to court. Stop making this a media circus and put the idiot behind bars where he belongs.

Saw movie called Trailer Park Jesus on youtube. Nothing to do with this thread but it's a pretty good movie. Everybody is on acid and it means nothing.

Do you really think that what he's done will actually put him in jail? I don't think so. In fact, I would not be surprised if he isn't even charged.

I agree with your comment about it being a media circus, though. In fact, I've noticed that the Globe and Mail online hasn't even mentioned him or the allegations on their home page over the last few days. Canadian media went nuts with this.

Also, and I think this is important for people to consider, why did the CBC management and Q producers allow Ghomeshi to continue when they were fully aware of his behavior? In fact, they'd even received complaints from interns and staff about Ghomeshi's behavior. Yet they turned a blind eye to it.

I see a lot of hypocrisy here. There should be hell to pay for the CBC managers that allowed this to continue.

You sir are a racist. If he was white you would not say such things.

It's difficult to know who is telling the truth, though I do tend to lean on the side of the allegedly abused women. My only question concerns their "on subsequent visits"...What are they doing going back there if it isn't any fun for them? WTF?!!

He must have been the "go to guy" if a person wanted something. I suspect those who took the abuse got what they wanted. Those who took more, got more. And those who didn't, didn't.

Very sad, but that's often what happens.
