Alphabet Execs Investigated For Sexual Harassment, Inappropriate Relationships With Employees

The fallout from the very public firing of former McDonald's president and CEO Jim Easterbrook over an affair with a company employee is now seeing a sexual misconduct investigation of executives at Alphabet, Inc., a company that's no stranger to these sordid episodes. Alphabet is the parent firm of Google Inc., which has also had to cope with executive sexual misconduct in the past. Alphabet’s board of directors has launched an investigation into how its executives handled claims of sexual harassment and other misconduct. It's assembled an independent subcommittee to look into these explosive issues, and has also engaged a law firm to assist with the sweeping investigation, according to CNBC.

In the board's sights is David Drummond, senior vice president of corporate development and chief legal officer for Alphabet, who fathered a child with Jennifer Blakely, one of his employees. Drummond admitted to his affair with Blakely, which began in 2007 when he was married to another woman. Both were Google employees at the time. Drummond subsequently married Corinne Dixon, a Google employee, over the recent Labor Day weekend. Blakely claims Drummond abandoned their son after their extramarital affair. She also alleges Drummond had affairs with other Alphabet and Google employees. Drummond denies this, despite having married Dixon. “Other than Jennifer, I never started a relationship with anyone else who was working at Google or Alphabet," claims Drummond. "Any suggestion otherwise is simply untrue.” Blakely said Drummond refused to discuss child support. She described his behavior towards her and their son as “nothing short of abuse.”

 

Alphabet has remained silent on the Drummond scandal and hasn't punished Drummond in any way. Drummond's pay from Alphabet, however, skyrocketed to $47 million in 2018 from $664,252 in 2017 and $664,387 in 2016. The resurrected Drummond scandal isn't the only high-profile outrage engulfing Alphabet and Google over the past few years. Alphabet shareholders sued the board last January for covering-up sexual misconduct from executives, including Android Inc. co-founder Andy Rubin.

Google CEO Larry Page demanded Rubin resign after a sexual harassment claim by an employee against Rubin was found to be credible. The employee, with whom Rubin had an extramarital affair, accused him of forcing her into giving him oral sex in a hotel room in 2013.

Record 998 Chinese gov't ships spotted in Japan's contiguous zone near Senkakus this year

 

TOKYO – A record 998 Chinese government ships were confirmed in the contiguous zone around the Senkaku Islands in Okinawa Prefecture, just outside Japan's territorial waters, this year, largely surpassing the previous record of 819 in 2013.

This year's figure, as of Nov. 29, indicates that tensions between Japan and China – while improving with summit talks and other initiatives – have been intensifying in the area near the disputed islands.

 

Since Japan's purchase of the uninhabited islets in the southernmost prefecture in September 2012, the number of China Coast Guard vessels surged in Japan's territorial waters (approximately 22 kilometers from the coast) as well as in the contiguous zone (about 22 kilometers from the outer edge of the territorial sea). According to the Japan Coast Guard (JCG), at least one Chinese government vessel was observed in the contiguous zone every day between April 12 and June 14 this year, the most consecutive days recorded.

 

The number of Chinese government vessels seen in the contiguous zone in the first 11 months this year has already topped last year's figure of 615 by nearly 400. In addition, a total of 114 government ships from China had been spotted in Japan's territorial waters as of Nov. 29. While the figure was below the record 180 in 2013, it could reach the second highest of 121 marked in 2016.

 

Such vessels have become larger in recent years and some of them are equipped with autocannons. The JCG has implemented security measures equivalent to 14 large-scale patrol ships to warn foreign government ships sailing in the contiguous zone and issue exclusion orders when they enter Japan's territorial waters.

 

The Japanese government is set to introduce two more large patrol ships in the beginning of 2020 and plans to deliver Japan's concerns to Chinese President Xi Jinping when he visits Tokyo next spring.

Jeffries and Co. Chairman of Board sold $16.41m-Nov 29

 

Haiti's top corporate donors

Amount donated: $6.5 million

When trying to raise funds for previous disasters like Hurricane Katrina, this investment bank learned an effective tactic: Tell clients you'll donate proceeds from a day's commission fees to the emergency. So after the earthquake struck Haiti, Jefferies was able to act quickly.

Just three days later, on what was otherwise expected to be a slow trading Friday, Jefferies clients turned out en masse, generating $5.5 million for Haiti. The firm came up with another $1 million, and its employees chimed in with $1 million more. Within a week, Jefferies had wired $7.5 million to ten NGOs.
