Another exec out amid sex harassment tension at Google
San Francisco (AFP) - Google parent Alphabet on Wednesday confirmed that an executive accused of sexual harassment left the company without an exit package as tension over its handling of such matters heightened.
Word that Rich DeVaul, a director at X lab devoted to "moonshots" such as internet service from balloons, was out came with reports that women employees were trying to organize a walk-out on Thursday to protest lenient handling of sexual misconduct in the workplace.
Alphabet declined to share any details about DeVaul's departure from the company on Tuesday.
Google chief executive Sundar Pichai sent a message to employees late Tuesday, a copy of which was posted online by technology news website Ars Technica.
Pichai said he has heard from many employees on the subject of inappropriate behavior at work and was "deeply sorry for the past actions and the pain they have caused employees."
"As CEO, it's been personally important to me that we take a much harder line on inappropriate behavior," Pichai said in the message.
He said anew that Google had fired 48 employees in the past two years – including 13 senior executives – as a result of sexual harassment allegations.

A wheelchair-bound man from Texas claims reporters for MSNBC suppressed his right to vote after they set up a live shot in a handicap parking space and would not move.
Writing on Facebook Tuesday, Houston resident James Berrie described arriving at a polling place to cast his vote in the midterm elections, however a news van was parked in the space reserved for disabled persons.

Berrie, a Multiple Sclerosis sufferer according to The Daily Mail, says after the crew refused to move when asked, his wife Sarah walked into their live shot, at which point “they cut the feed and got pissed.
Went to vote, and found this waiting for us. The only van accessible spot and they’re filming in it. We asked them to move, pointed out how it was wrong, then went to vote, because it takes time to load up. But came out and still there. Not even packing up, still getting ready for their shot. Then Sarah made a big scene and did not back down. They claimed they had a live shot, so Sarah walked into the shot. They cut the feed and got pissed. Fortunately other people joined in, plus firefighters who where there for Prop B. We finally left once their van was loaded. But there were plenty of witnesses and pictures/video taken by others.

We made the wrong call today by using a disabled parking spot for our live shot in TX. There’s no excuse. I apologize to the two people who were on their way to vote as it’s one of the most important parts of our democracy; we’d never want to jeopardize anyone’s ability to do so

In Houston, MSNBC reporter Mariana Atencio is surprised to find that Hispanic voters also support Republicans and are opposed to illegal immigration. Be sure to like, subscribe, and comment below to share your thoughts on the video.
One law for NBC and one law for cripples
One law for NBC and one law for cripples
NBC blocking the rights og the disable to vote !!!

They should pay a fine for doing a tv show in the disable parking space not allowing the disable to vote
Berrie added that the van did not have the proper handicap placard to be parked in the space, and that he believed this to be a form of voter suppression.
“This is suppression. If I couldn’t park I couldn’t vote. Their van had no handicap placards. And this happens all the time. Handicap spots are not loading zones for gear and equipment. Figure something else out. Especially at a public event where people are going to need the spots. This is not ok, and the station needs to be made aware. All of them.”
Berrie reportedly contacted Democrat Beto O’Rourke’s campaign and says “they gave me a number for voter issues in Austin. Called and reported and they’re going to investigate.”
His wife Sarah added on Facebook that “Preventing the disabled from being able to park in order to vote is voter suppression. And blocking access to a handicap parking spot is illegal.”
“We made the wrong call today by using a disabled parking spot for our live shot in TX. There’s no excuse,” Atencio wrote. “I apologize to the two people who were on their way to vote as it’s one of the most important parts of our democracy; we’d never want to jeopardize anyone’s ability to do so.”
Atencio also made headlines from Houston Tuesday after she was stunned to learn that several Hispanic voters she’d interviewed were voting red.
