I think it’s safe to say that Greta Van Susteren should just not say anything about sexual harassment. The former Foxer changed her tune on Gretchen Carlson v. Roger Ailes a little too much to be seriously credible, and now she’s tweeting things that show her utter lack of a clue about sexual harassment as even a general topic. She’s getting called out on Twitter, and her learning curve seems to be at a flatline.

Let’s recap. When news broke about Carlson’s claims against Ailes, Greta was there to defend her then-boss.

But then, she started criticizing the very idea of sexual harassment training:

… which sounds a lot like this woman has never been in the same room with an actual sexual predator. While there certainly are some who openly harass in vulgar and crude ways, there are obviously many, many cases in which harassment is more subtle (although hardly less abusive), and conducted within the confines of what might be considered “good manners.” Sexual harassers of every variety are experts at finding imperceptible ways to exploit their victims. There is simply no excuse for Greta Van Susteren not to know this.

Twitter erupted with some education for Greta, reminding her that there are people in workplaces who actually do need to learn something about sexual harassment.

But she did not take the hint. She kept up the rant about the incredible burden of undergoing workplace training:


**********Several tweets included!!**********



“Ugh,” indeed, Greta. To make matters worse (and I’m sure it was no coincidence), Van Susteren’s tweets hit the web yesterday right around the same time a New York Times story broke about $13 million in payouts made by Fox and Bill O’Reilly to protect O’Reilly from sexual harassment complaints from five women. According to the Times, the settlements (two which had been previously known, and three that were just uncovered) occurred shortly after Roger Ailes was dismissed from Fox last summer in the wake of scandal, as Fox insisted that it did not tolerate behavior that “disrespects women or contributes to an uncomfortable work environment.” O’Reilly, ever the charmer, denies the merit of any such claims.

Until she gets a clue, Greta Van Susteren should really just not talk about sexual harassment. I get it. She wasn’t victimized. Good for her. Glad to hear it. But someone who worked in an alleged harassment factory for years without even noticing it probably isn’t the best authority on whether harassment training works. When it comes to sexual violence of any severity, there are two choices: one can be part of the solution or be part of the problem. Maybe Greta just needs a little more time away from the Fox studios to figure out which side she’d like to take.

1. Van Susteren can't be taken seriously-- about ANYTHING!

She's a horrible interviewer, she sends marshmallow questions to conservatives and fascists, and she NEVER pushes or goes to second or third level questioning to get an answer. She lives on her chutzpah and has little else. MSNBC got suckered into hiring her.

2. Never took her seriously on any issue....
