Townhall: Speaking on ABC’s “This Week,” Cokie Roberts made a
startling admission: “every female in the press corps knew” to avoid
being in an elevator with Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), and has apparently
known about this “for years.” Conyers has been accused of multiple
instances of sexual harassment and has stepped down from the House
Judiciary Committee.
Despite the allegations against him, major players in the Democratic
Party have defended Conyers and will not say that he should resign.
Pelosi even referred to the embattled congressman as an “icon.”
Roberts was discussing the current culture on Capitol Hill with
Martha Raddatz and Anna Palmer. Roberts said that while this has been
the status quo for decades, she believes that things could change now
that people are coming public with their experiences.
