Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsHas Kirsten Gillibrand ever named names of her harassers in Congress?
I have no doubts that she was subject to harassment. What bothers me is why the names of these people have never been revealed. For all the talk about her taking a stand against workplace harassment, it seems like she is protecting their identities. Why is that? My guess is that there are Democrats involved, and it would be political suicide if she outed them. This is why I don't trust her motives.

What do you make of the thinly veiled selective outrage at Senator Gillibrand ?

Seems rather biased... but I'm certain you'll allege otherwise.
