Yesterday San Diego Mayor Bob Finer admitted to sexual harassment after a council member called for his resignation. Initially he denied it but finally came forward yesterday releasing a statement saying ‘he needs help‘. His video apology seemed more like a creepy face-saving move to me – a politician to the end.
Media critic Richard Grenell has been tweeting this morning about the media ignoring the story:
fair to say if the San Diego Mayor were Republican, there'd be a national media meltdown. A Democrat is admitting to sexual harassment!

Dear MSNBC, the Mayor of San Diego has admitted to sexually harassing women, including subordinates. I know, I know…he's a Democrat.

My favorite, of course:
If Bill Clinton had a son, he'd look like Bob Filner.
