Def one of my favorite OCM pairings ever. Too bad it's no more.

LOL. :D Just so everyone knows, a 'swizzle stick' is not what you think (male genetalia). Rather, it is a small stick that people put in cocktails/alcoholic drinks that stir the drink (almost like a coffee stirrer).

Not sure if Bob was implying something else? :unsure:

Yeah. Bob was referring to his genitalia. No doubt about it.  :lol:

The worst part is that I saw that double entrede being used in a most literal manner at some bar on one of those "caught on tape" shows.

I think Bob was implying a certain lack of girth.   :sick:

On the contrary, i think he was implying ownership of lots of girth.  :twothumbs: :P

Here's a talk radio segment about this, that you all might find of interest:

http://search.everyzing.com/viewMedia.jsp?dedupe=1&col=en-all-public-ep&index=2&e=19843830&il=en&num=10&scol=pod&mc=en-all&start=0&q=%22Flow%22&expand=true&match=query,channel&filter=1

Apparently, he worked at another news station, doing the weather, in the late 80s, and there's the possibility he may have harrassed ladies when he worked, there.   :wacko:

I am sorry for bumping this 2+ year old topic, but does anyone still have copies of the lawsuit claim? Billy posted them earlier here, but the links are dead. Does anyone also have the TMZ video of Hillary and Stokes? I've been wondering where Hillary is now after that debacle

After years of knowing about the general consensus of what happened, I finally read the court document. My heart just wants to break for Hillary because she clearly went through absolute hell with him as well as Melissa. It's disturbing just how protected Bob was at TWC. And the fact that this was clearly an open secret among people that worked there makes it worse. I've been watching a lot of hurricane storm alert clips lately and I came across one that had Bob with Nicole Mitchell during Hurricane Dennis coverage. I could tell just from the first shot that Nicole DIDN'T want to be there with him. (And she had worked with Hillary at least once on First Outlook so I'm sure she knew by this point what he was like).

TWC is lucky this occurred a decade before #MeToo happened, because had this blown up during the height of that, a lot more backlash would have happened. I'm glad Hillary won her case but it is sad that we haven't seen anything from her since TWC. Melissa at least got a local gig in the Dayton, Ohio area a few years ago. That genuinely made me happy to see knowing what she had to go through too. Hillary deserves a comeback.

TWC isn't a good channel anymore but I hope it learned their lesson from this utter BS that Hillary rightfully sued them over.

Sending all the love for Hillary, Melissa and everyone else in 2022. We miss you!

Where did you see that video with Bob and Nicole working together? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
