Remember the young east indian 'looking' guy on CBC who got the ax for being the 'S' side in S&M play with women? What was his name?
I had a lot of sympathy for that guy. He was actually playing with women in the way those particular women wanted to play, but that wasn't politically correct at the time. I wonder what would be said if it was all revisited? Any interest in the topic?

Cheers.

edit: ahhhh right, Gian Ghomeshi.
He doesn't deserve your sympathy. People remember that Ghomeshi was acquitted of sexual assault, but people forget that he treated female employees at CBC like garbage.

CBC's inquiry into how their management handled complaints about Ghomeshi resulted in 2 managers being fired.

Bad publicity from the criminal charges was the catalyst that led to the rest of this stuff becoming public. 

He deserved to be fired for the way he treated other employees.

The only reason he didn't get fired sooner was that the network brass thought that he was their star, and felt that the women who he abused were expendable if it kept him happy.

He's a goon who bullied and degraded women because he knew that he could get away with it.
