And with many responses here, you wonder why women don’t come forward. Pretty disgusting
Only the Fake ones shouldn't come forward. I believed Juanita Broaddrick, Paula Jones, and Kathleen Willey, along with all of Harvey Weinsteins victims. The ones with the Michael Avenatti type lawyers aren't believable.
Does anyone else think it’s pretty bad for SI to steal the spotlight from the award winner? That girl brought down a serial abuser who victimized dozens if not hundreds of young girls over the years. That’s real courage. Having Blasey Ford give the award meant all the media attention was on her instead of the award recipient.

If I'm reading the article correctly, the reason the other 299 (plus 23 husbands) didn't come forward is because the class action lawsuit that they joined hadn't been filed yet.
I guess the prospect of big settlements jogged their collective memories.
FTR, if there is any money left in the settlement fund, he tried to finger **** #me too!

Actually, it's perfectly appropriate given the nature of controversy.
The truth be told, these accusations that are almost always offered without proof and decades after the events were to have taken place have gone downhill ever since Anita Hill first introduced America to Long Dong Silver.
Back then, the stories were inventive, vivid and detailed, even if they lacked a connection to real events.
Sure, it takes a certain amount of courage to initiate a class action lawsuit against a deep-pocketed organization for not firing someone who, after countless suit-joiners make nearly incidental claims, is unable to prove his innocence, but it takes more courage to accuse a man that is able to prove his innocence.
Because of this, Ford's bold and imaginative testimony injected new life into what had become the very stale and predictable #metoo movement.
Unlike all her #metoo predecessors, women that claimed men they had met sexually assaulted or harassed them in some way, #metoo pioneer Ford had the courage to publicly claim to have been raped by a man she had actually never met.
Christine Blasey Ford appeared on video Tuesday to present this year’s Sports Illustrated Inspiration of the Year award to former gymnast Rachael Denhollander –and without saying his name, she attacked Justice Kavanaugh one more time.
Better that than being featured in the Swimsuit Issue.
