273-Tara Reade's friend speaks out on Joe Biden sexual assault allegation + Ryan Grim & Rich McHugh by Katie Halper published on 2020-04-22T21:27:15Z NPR interviewed Tara's friend, who we'll call Jane Doe, but wouldn't air it because she wouldn't give her name. NPR plays anonymous interviews all the time, but wouldn't play hers. Jane was one of the two people I spoke to who corroborated Tara Telling them about the assault. Plus Ryan Grim on breaking the story and Rich McHugh on reporting on it. Genre News & Politics Comment by Carolyn Weaver We really need a full transcript of this incredible interview with Tara's friend, whom she told at the time. I don't know why her account hasn't gotten more play, as it is direct corroboration of what Tara said and did at the time of the incident. 2020-05-05T03:14:19Z Comment by rt notice how her friend almost refuses to talk about this "call", the reporter ask her a question about the "call" and she goes into some babbling about something else 2020-04-30T08:52:22Z Comment by AbsinthEve wow good for her !!! 2020-04-29T18:33:28Z Comment by boricuatribe Tara was stunning, so no doubt she was a mark for the drunken horny jerks in the halls of power. Only once did I get support after a sexual assault, only because it was so public. Whether it's "domestic" violence or sexual assault, the most common reaction is "What did you do to make that happen?" It hasn't changed that much. More concern trolling, more foundations, more bureaucratic shelters, that's it. Accountability, still just one: Weinstein. 2020-04-25T03:01:47Z Comment by dhartk THIS is what women, too many women, go through, from powerful men. Unacceptable. So unacceptable that it is the women who lose their lives. Tara, Monica Lewinsky, Anita Hill. And millions of others. 2020-04-23T17:32:48Z
