Russell Simmons sacked by his company after latest sexual assault claim

NEW YORK --  Def Jam co-founder Russell Simmons has been dropped from all of his businesses amid a new sexual assault claim. According to screenwriter Jenny L., Simmons, sexually violated her in 1991 during a party they  both attended.   While Simmons has admitted that he was indeed with her on that night, he,  indirectly claimed that his recollection of events wasn't the same as hers -- but acknowledged her feelings of fear and intimidation were real. I have been informed with great anguish of Jenny Lumet’s recollection about our night together in 1991. I know Jenny and her family and have seen her several times over the years since the evening she described. While her memory of that evening is very different from mine, it is now clear to me that her feelings of fear and intimidation a...

The latest on Matt Lauer ‘s sexual misconduct scandal: Top Story

It's official, in Hollywood, no man in power is immune from abusing his power.   Earlier this week, NBC announced that Matt Lauer has been fired from his post at the news station.  The firing reportedly came after numerous women came forward revealing that they had been sexually assaulted; harassed, or flat out demeaned by Lauer all together. The news sent shock-waves through the journalism community, mostly, because Lauer was once considered the creme of the crop in New York journalism.   Now,   new reports suggest that the issue may not have been isolated.   Reports published Thursday claim that Lauer "regularly cheated on his wife of 19 years"  and often behind her back. During the publication of this particular report, The Daily News, has received a statement from Matt Lauer ...

Tobacco ads on American television are about to get a whole lot more confusing

Tobacco ads in the United States, uh, are about to get a whole lot more confusing.  According to a 1999 Supreme Court ruling, and a 2006 judgement,  tobacco companies are now being forced to finally comply with a particular order from a federal court.   That order, perhaps,  will now see their ads on television actually tell you how harmful their products are  in their entirety rather than just a minimal sense. The ruling came from judge Gladys Kessler, who,  lambasted tobacco companies across the spectrum for flat out deceiving the American public about the harmful consequences of their products. In the seething 1,600 page ruling, Kessler, ruled that the tobacco companies must comply with the new regulations. Those regulations regarding television ads and advertising spots began in...
