EXCERPT:
BOOTHE: "I think that’s what it looks like and I think that’s the danger more broadly with the #MeToo movement, because it presumes that every woman is telling the truth and every man is guilty. And that’s what we saw with the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings. I think that’s why so many people like myself took issue with the way that he was being treated on the left because the comparison between the two stories is both intellectually dishonest and it’s just wrong. I have no problem with Rachel receiving this award. She was unquestionably brave by bringing those allegations against Nassar. There were 300-something women that stepped forward to also bring forward allegations. 125 brought forward criminal complaints. The problem is putting her in the same category with Christine Ford, who has no corroborating evidence, no corroborating witnesses. If anything, one of her best friends who she named, Leland Keyser, says that she’s never met Brett Kavanaugh, does not remember the party in question and later told the FBI that she felt pressured or at least reportedly felt pressured by Ford’s friends to change her story. By the time 'The Washington Post' first ran Christine Ford’s story, she had already changed her story a few times.”
