I cannot see him. I cannot have a relationship with my father and be morally consistent... I lived with all these adopted children, so they are my family. To say Soon-Yi was not my sister is an insult to all adopted children.

Being under the microscope meant I was never given any slack. I still managed to screw up plenty in life, mind you, but in the things I really cared about - the legal work, or the stories I was telling as a writer, or the office I built in government - I wasn't left a lot of margin for error. It's kept me driven.

They had a euphemism at this company called enhanced severance. by Ronan Farrow

They had a euphemism at this company called enhanced severance.

I'm still talking to a large number of these women, they continue to be committed to exposing a culture of silence around this.

The Tracy Ullman Show, he said, ‘That was a great meeting, now we have to go out to dinner,’.

After the former girlfriend ended the relationship, she told several friends about the abuse. A number of them advised her to keep the story to herself, arguing thatSchneidermanwas too valuable a politician for the Democrats to lose. She described this response as heartbreaking.

This was activity that happened, in many cases, fully clothed, outside of a sexual context, during arguments, in one case, a woman wasn't even in a relationship at all with New York AG Eric Schneiderman, Alisyn.

This is an individual who was a very public champion of women's rights, who in fact introduced anti-choking legislation, and he was, according to multiple women in this story, choking them, among other things.

I just want to relate the message of one of these women -- and it was a shared sentiment among this group -- that this was not role-playing, that this was not' Fifty Shades of Grey.' It wasn't in a gray area at all.

It was upsetting to see, so the allegation that this was role-playing, you know, is not consistent with what these women said.
