He seems entirely ignorant of the recovered memory movement of the 1980s and the huge debate between clinical and experimental psychology about whether memory could be subverted by suggestive questioning, even about very serious things such as child sexual abuse, and whether recovered memories were being implanted by therapists. This so-called hysteria died away because experimental psychologists thoroughly investigated the issue and revised standards for questioning children and for discussing sensitive topics in therapy. That's why this disappeared from public view.<br /><br />Are women believable? Are children believable? How do you tell the difference between a real memory and something concocted? These are important questions that have been answered since the 1980s -- that's why the debate receded -- not because there is no such thing as child sexual abuse or because women's memories of abuse are faulty or overblown, or because people get all worked up over nothing. We now know how to tell real memories from false ones.<br /><br />Somerby thinks the milk carton days made people afraid of stranger abduction. To some extent that's true, but those kids pictured were actually abducted. They were abducted by people they knew, usually non-custodial parents.<br /><br />In CA, the practice of betrothing young teens to older men has some grounding in culture. When the teens or parents rebel, the older man sometimes abducts the young girl and tries to take her to Mexico. The modern equivalent of the milk carton, the amber alert, helps law enforcement return these girls to their homes.<br /><br />Somerby thinks the only two crimes were the 14 year old's molestation and the 16 year old's assault. He is wrong. It was also a crime to serve wine to a girl who was 17 (not of drinking age), something that is not clearly remembered by the girl herself. It was not a crime then, but is now a crime to stalk young women at their workplaces and school. Those other people who reported Moore's behavior describe numerous instances of Moore stalking teen girls, to the point of his being banned from the mall and being on police watch lists -- one officer's responsibility was keeping him away from the cheerleaders at high school football games.<br /><br />These additional accounts try to place the two actual assaults into a context -- that Moore was attracted to and tried to "date" young teens as a pattern of behavior, not a one-off or a misunderstanding or an opportunistic occurrence, but as something he did regularly. Even his own colleagues attested to that. This matters because this election is about what kind of person Moore is. As an officer of the court, he engaged in illegal and wrong behavior toward young girls at a time when he was charged with upholding the law.<br /><br />No one is going to prosecute Moore this long after his actions. But they are going to decide whether to elect him or not. That's why the press would not be doing its job if it did not tell the full story about who Moore was and who he is today, when he will not acknowledge having known any of the women who have come forward.<br /><br />Somerby, of course, continues to be an asshole.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-55287044782624577632017-12-11T13:06:10.729-05:002017-12-11T13:06:10.729-05:00Is Kathleen Parker one of "OUR upper-end jour...Is Kathleen Parker one of "OUR upper-end journalists", in the standard sense in which Somerby uses "our" to mean "liberal"? It's hard to tell. However, Parker describes herself as a right-of-center conservative. <br />Secondly, why no link to Parker's column? It was an op-ed. It's main point was to portray Al Franken as a sacrificial lamb to the current hysteria, a point one would think Somerby might *agree* with. She thinks what Moore is accused of is far worse than what Franken is accused of. She twice refers to Moore as a "child molester", i.e.:<br />"Republicans would seemingly rather vote for an accused child molester than let a Democrat enter the Senate chamber."<br /><br />(Now, Somerby may take issue with the term "child molester", although that seems a debatable objection on his part. )<br /><br />Also, it's good to know that Michelle Goldberg, the "pseudoprogressive careerist" (as TDH recently called her) describes Moore's alleged transgressions in a way that meets with Somerby's approval. <br /><br />Finally, it's interesting to note (for the umpteenth time) how Somerby views the alleged behavior of the media entities that he follows as an interesting anthropological case study (in the Moore matter), but ignores the other side of the coin, where sanctimonious disapproval of sex stuff has always found a comfortable home, until a sex scandal rocks their world, in which case they either ignore it (O'Reilly), or, as in this case, try to discredit the accusers. And this last is coming from the President on down to "R" Congress members. And that's pretty chilling. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
