Tavis Smiley: ‘At Worst, It Is Misjudgment’ for Having Relations with Employees’

RUSH EXCERPT:
SMILEY: "At worst it is misjudgment. Over the years I have learned. 30 years or so, there are things I might have done 30 years ago that I might not do now. Not because it’s illegal or immoral or unethical but just because it might represent that judgment. I’ve written two books in my career talk about mistakes I’ve made and lessons I learned along the way. There are many things in my life that I’ve done in the past that I might not do today but it does not rise to the level of this kind of public shame, this kind of public evaluation and this kind of wrongful termination in this kind of personal destruction."
