Pink News bosses slapped ass, FONDLED junior staffers

The dreadful antics were carried out at an office party.

'They weren’t capable of consenting'

Five former members of staff told the BBC they had witnessed Dr James groping and kissing a junior member of staff, who they said was "too drunk to stand or talk" and "unable to consent".

Stephan Kyriacou, who worked at PinkNews between 2019 and 2021, said the job had started as a "dream come true" where he did not have to "hide who I was or pretend", but the dream was soon "shattered".

During a Christmas party, Mr Kyriacou said, Mr Cohen had slapped him on the bottom in front of everyone else.

"I just shut down for a minute. I didn’t know what to say. I was in shock. I remember turning to my friends and saying, 'What the hell just happened?'"

Mr Kyriacou said he no longer felt comfortable enough to be alone around his boss.

And that was one of many, many stories. One of the others who came forward was so scared they had their words read by a voice actor in the video report.

3rd thread, dumbass

The first two were pretty nasty because Kyriacou is trans, and that's a third rail topic here. I don't blame OP.
