I was referring more to the media frenzy that accompanied the red scare


leading individuals to "name names" as a means of settling old scores and garnering media attention, rather than exposing truth or criminality.

Also, at least from what I have read there is a distinct difference in regard to Keillor, in that, his version of events, "I put my hand on her bare back to comfort her, she pulled away, I said I was sorry and didn't mean to frighten her, there was no sexual desire attached, it was just a misunderstanding", would not be considered sexual harassment by most people. But perhaps, there is more to the story that we will learn in the coming days.
