I noted TimesNews running the story. Now they are running everything he spits out.

Memo on Kent Williams' alleged acts prompts criticism, ouster call

GOP lawmaker hits Repubs on harassment release

TimesNews is also running the same stories. cept they are just listing them as Assocaited Press.

From these articles note Rep. Dale Ford again coming to the aide of House Speaker Kent Williams

State Rep. Dale Ford today downplayed a memo released by House Republican Leader Jason Mumpower's office that recounted another Republican lawmaker's claims she was sexually harassed by Williams in 2007.

"There's not a woman in Nashville that's afraid of Kent Williams," Ford said in a phone interview from his Jonesborough home. "He's one of the most unlikely people in the world to sexually harass anybody."

Ford shared an office suite with Williams, of Elizabethton, when both Republicans were freshman lawmakers during the last two-year General Assembly.

"They're just trying to trash Kent Williams," Ford said.

The original story never mentioned that Rep Jason Mumpower had been asked in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. It was worded that Rep Jason Mumpower released the memo on his own merit.

Rep. Susan Lynn speaks about he problems with sexual harassment and the new speaker.

Blue Collar Muse has a right up about Did the release of a memo violate the Confidentiality provision of the General Assembly’s Sexual Harassment Policy?
