Global BC's Chris Gailus named in sexual harassment case

Global BC anchor Chris Gailus accused of sexual harassment | CTV Vancouver News

So, pro tip, don't grab a disgruntled employee's ass,ever.

Serious question now. Will this just blow over or will it seriously impact his role as main anchor?

But in 2013, Koke sent an email to Gailus asking him to stop the sexual comments. He emailed back, saying he thought they were just joking.

"I had a different understanding of what our friendship could bear. I'm sorry," Gailus said in an email.

Koke said the harassment stopped, but she still decided to raise the issue with management.
Chris is obviously in the wrong. The chick should have raised the issue much sooner at the same time as emailing to Chris.

She doesn't look bad at all, just an older chick is all






Gailus looks like a douche so im not surprised to hear this, but bigger question, people watch global news? CBC Vancouver or CTV news all the way

So she waited 7 years to say something, then when she did he apologized and stopped any inappropriate behaviour. Then she decides to raise the issue with management after the fact, gets fired 2 years later, wait another year and then brings it to the Canadian Human Rights Commission? What exactly does she expect to happen?

Yes they can, as can anybody else, but I'm not sure what people expect when you don't do anything for 10 bleeping years.

Now it's a hot button social issue and she's looking to capitalize on it would be my guess.

Not dismissing the possibility of this being true, but if you're accused of something, it'd be nice if your name was kept out of the media until an allegation is proven.

Pretty sure these things occur more than often just behind the scenes
But this article was interesting specifically due to the fact he's an anchor of one of BC's biggest stations

been to many events where he has been - treats everyone like they're below him because he's on BC tv.

guy thinks he's a global superstar (pun intended). he's a small town hick getting some small town spotlight by being on the news - has gone to his head.

Tuned into the news today expecting to see this plastered all over the media as top story witch hunt on the guy.

Wasn't even mentioned.

Seems like no big deal that has blown over, or no one really cares.
