If they are known enough publicly that people who post on USCHO know about them, then I have to assume the allegations have made their way back to some of PA's bosses/handlers for his radio show, his broadcasting job with the Vikings, and his work out at Canterbury Park. I would think that if most of those places had heard similar stories to what is circulating here that they would have cut ties with PA before it blows up in their face.
    Well, history shows that it takes a whole lot to make people cut ties

      les: FTR, bbdl HATES PA to begin with, so there is a little bias, methinks. I agree he's creepy when he's talking to women on air, sometimes he pushes the boundaries a little too far.

      Also, there's a local politician (Ellison) that was sure to have been ousted a couple months ago due to domestic/sexual assault, but as his story is developing, it's looking like there is no story. He wants his divorce record unsealed and an investigation. She doesn't; but still claims to have video proof, which she won't release.

        You seem to have placed that position and facts of that situation in a blender and get them completely mixed up. Ellison did not want his divorce records unsealed, out of respect of his and his ex-wife's privacy. Regardless, they were unsealed yesterday and he was shown to have been the victim of spousal abuse. Details are in a story on the Strib's site, if you're interested.

          And, the person that is accusing him of abuse is not his ex-wife, it is another ex-girlfriend. Someone not involved in the releasing of his divorce records, correct? (I have not really been following it, anything political ****es me off at this point, so I try to avoid it for my own sanity)

            I haven't said anything about him being creepy towards women on the air. I am talking about him grabbing male coworkers junk.

              That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                Correct. There was an "alt right newspaper," as described in the Strib's article, that petitioned the courts to unseal the documents for Ellison's divorce, trying to establish a pattern of behavior of which he's been accused by the ex-girlfriend. The documents instead pointed out that his ex-wife was beating him after she was diagnosed with early stages of MS and dealing with depression after the diagnosis. He says that he didn't want her dirty laundry made public.

                  Until this last article, it sounded like because of the investigation that he wanted, they were going to unseal the divorce case, and he was fine with that, but ex-wife wasn't. This last article then made it sound like because she didn't want it unsealed, he decided to support her stance on it.

                      Both Bob Barker and Loretta Lynn hospitalized. Lynn's condition doesn't sound good at all. Barker hospitalized with "extreme back pain". Being 94 and having "extreme" anything is usually not good.
