“A nonpartisan political organization is facing blowback from its employees after hiring journalist Mark Halperin, whose career as a prominent TV pundit hit a wall after he faced multiple allegations of sexual harassment,” the Washington Post reports.
“Junior staffers at No Labels objected this week when the organization hired Halperin, co-author of the best-selling campaign chronicle Game Change. The internal dissension grew so heated that two employees who complained were granted paid leave — to consider whether they want to stay, the organization said — and a third is considering resigning over it.”
The only justification given for Halperin’s hiring is that he’s “relatively low cost.”
