    In 2017, I wrote about a cable news host being gross and inappropriate with me. I was afraid to name him at the time. I'm not anymore; it was Chris Matthews! And his sexist exchange with Warren this week inspired me to revisit those moments and name himhttps://www.gq.com/story/chris-matthews-experience …

        Yeah, that part, when he said to Warren, "Why would he lie?" Warren's face was like, "WTF? He's running for president." He needs to go away.

        Sad to say, this is not a surprise. We see him on-air being sexist to most women. I refuse to watch him.

        I literally will watch Ari and flip to something else as soon as I realize I might hear his voice.

        Oh wow! So sorry. This may legally not be harassment, but it's so close, it's unacceptable. Still shocked by the way @HardballChris questioned @ewarren on if whether thought Bloomberg might lie. @MSNBC There are TONS of other talented journalists. #FireChrisMathews

        "He seems constitutionally incapable of probing these hyper-relevant topics with anything approaching intellectual curiosity or open-mindedness. In that way, he's also unfit for his job." This ^.
