Wow! Powerful, articulate truth-speaking. As someone who faced this in the workplace over twenty-five years ago, it can be so demeaning and hurtful and it stays with you. Especially when you just want to do a good job to the best of your ability. To be bound by arbitration clauses only serves to embolden perpetrators and fosters worsening outcomes for those who have no voice. I commend Ms. Dushku for taking a stand, and also to her support system for giving her a safety net to do so. Hopefully changes will be forthcoming to stop this kind of predatory practice from harming more innocent victims.

i guess he's not so naive and besotted that he hears only her complains; She's very vocal for a woman who has never had a hand laid upon her. The frat boy humour is very unwelcome, but that's all she suffered. Some could say her contract would have been terminated long before 6 years (given the alchemy for 3 episodes, that's a given !!!). She's very lucky MeToo is en vogue. It's rare enough to come in a new workspace and make the rules, also rare they're imposed all of a sudden. Never happened to me, but happens to an actress who's been in the business forever. Weird... Don't get me wrong, weatherly would respect me. I guess her too if she'd made the effort. I feel the lawsuit was better. She's not top of the line and was beautiful, now, not so much. they're both pissed. instead of talking to him she plotted behind his back.

@@TitaniumTurbine I"m overly bitter because everyday people get screwed, while the rich or famous cook settlements for enduring/committing minor infractions. Slapping men around is not for fun. It can even be dangerous. But it is the only educational measure they understand on the spot. Their hand on my ass/my breast results in my hand on their cheek . Action-reaction. swift and to the point. Just like any attempt to humiliate us calls for a harsh repartee. At that point, if they haven't changed, they never will. not really. A good HR or lawsuit will teach them to be more careful but they won't miss any occasion to play with Barbie Helpless. Most just need to understand that we are not their plaything, sextoy...and that we are very much not amused by their games. I've escaped collective rape four times, One obsessed individual once. that is entirely different. In this case, inflicting the most damage is of the essence. Probably only one man out of four at best/worst would have followed through but was stopped by the others. They weren't able to kid themselves that "No means yes". Few are rapists, but many are abusers if like sharks, they smell blood..The "proper ways" are signs of weakness and often result in the woman being ostracised while the man gets a slap on the wrist. He needs it in his face.

What WE get are apologies and promises from higher-ups to be better next time. best case scenario in most places. But the direction came to my team to do just that, all hope is not lost everywhere. They tend to be well-informed about sexual harassment, which is not, far from it the only form in the service industry. Wrong colour or sexuality get way many more nasty comments or mistreatment than should be permissible, but we all need money We most certainely do not get paid 9 millions for a few weeks of ruffled feathers.

Because she's a princess, she can't be verbally pushed around ? Good thing Meghan Merkle doesn't air the laundry. I'm not saying they HAVE TO stay quiet. The real princess is classy, she handled the Windsors. Eliza is proud to remember her 30 years where she never saw anything untowards until BULL, yeah, right.... The "harassment" she describes is no harassment at all; She can't suffer a disagreement and gets 9.5 millions.Good for her, lesson for Weatherly... In fact, it's no good to anyone. HE had training sessions, but what about the team ? The message is to mind your business and shut up. Do not assist coworkers. That's why the mentalities are slow to change. No solidarity. Where is the "if you see something, say something" among adults ? I'm French and the labour class is the best equipped to deal with these conflicts. Unions reps invite both parties to talk things out and investigate if they have to. It doesn't come down to who can represent himself better in the HR office. there is no payday if you sue someone. He/the employer will be punished (therapy for an individual who is not a repeat offender)but you won't touch a dime. Keeps things kosher.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

Who said that Eliza was a princess? She’s an actress and a woman who was subjected to verbal abuse and harassment. No man or woman should ever have to deal with this. Meghan Markle doesn’t air her laundry? LOL That’s all she has been doing for the past year. Eliza is a very good actress and a woman who is dedicated to helping others as evidenced by her charity work. She does a lot of stuff that unlike Meghan Markle and others doesn’t get profiled on a Netflix series. Eliza tends to play a lot of tough characters and I believe she is a strong woman, but she’s also a sensitive and empathetic woman who genuinely wanted to have success on “Bull”. She deserved better. If I was a producer on that set and I found out what Weatherly was doing, I would have fired him, not her. I also would have fired the crew members who joined in and sent a message to the rest of the cast and crew that harassment or bullying of any kind will NOT be tolerated. At the end of the day, Eliza will come out on top. She’s got so many potential opportunities in movies and television whether it’s in front of the camera or behind it. Whatever she chooses to do, I support her 💯

I'm sorry, i've worked for about 18 months with an Afghan refugee who thought he could do anything in a free country. Since most employees were migrants and he passed for a "senior" employee, and was a very good worker, they stayed discreet. He harassed whoever he deemed "weak" the most but was a pain in the ass and the teamleader's pet. Nobody was allowed to "pick on him"; We on the other hand, were his toys. he was a houndog for any women without a ring on her hand and a scarf on her head. I had to work alone with him regularly to change lighbulbs and neons (miles of stairs and caves, and even in common areas, who cares? )What usually took a week, suddenly took 2 days !!! he grabbed me anytime he came near me. And was a real player, masochist all around. My teamleader heard us sometimes, noticed he was covered with bruises, even joked about it. Since we were together every 3 weeks, no problem. week one, with an african, was reduced to Four days anyway. Then Three; that's the price of not helping me. i let them reasonably slack, did the work and they barely grumbled more than usual about the extra work I provided, which was their work. The woman previously harassed before me (who didn't do that job)was almost left in peace; Endured more than Eliza Dushku, but that was a relief for her. Little SOB was all about me. All good things come to an end; our boss went on vacation and a woman got the job; the gremlin blew a fuse and showed his colours. He actually tried to threaten our new teamleader ! Among other things, like destructing our Tshirts. She talked to him, let him do as he pleased for the day and called the direction. A union rep came right away, The next day, accompanied by the HR. On day three the direction and HR came and apologised to the team, spent quality time with women to hammer the fact that we should step up. and not hesitate to talk to the real people in charge, like I did for my case. The new teamleader just confirmed and more what I had told. he harassed everyone anytime the mood struck him. Threatening the teamleader was a poor move. The gremlin was expelled instantly. His papa was reprimanded, but he let it known that he was relieved. I hear he listens more to his team now. And understands that signaling or firing people comes with being boss. We need education.

It’s NOT...implying “your truth” as a subjective perspective on an objective truth, as if your version of events would differ from someone else’s. It IS...When someone experiences trauma, that trauma becomes a deeply personal part of that person and therefore for them to share that aspect of themselves authentically, to express that truth of their experience, that is them sharing their truth.

You are an amazing actor and I love all your work. I hope to see more work from you on the screen. The bravery you have is making change. Thank you for being a role model for more change. Sad you had to go through this abuse. 😔 stay strong. Please do independent work. There are so many platforms and is not big networks.

[@heavenlylight43]

I was just watching you in the movie, “Bring It” and looked up the information about the movie and I happen to see this video about what happened to you. I am so sorry that this happened. Thank you for sharing. It seems like things have never changed from the early days of Hollywood. It’s good to know the reality about people so we don’t support them. They are disgusting, especially your costar.

[@katherinedinwiddie4526]

❤Our hearts go out to you! We took a poll in the Karen Read trial you came up as one to play her in a movie. Bless you!

[@solidsnakemgs2180]

Damn big fan of you Eliza, this is BS, hope you get justice you’re one strong woman big fan of Dollhouse and glad you didn’t take shit from them and stood up

[@ranig9099]

I support you wholeheartedly

[@kellylewis3507]

NDA should be against the law . It’s not right ! Why protect the company and who did it .. and not the women

[@josephwalsh2822]

So much respect to Eliza ❤

[@faithlou4312]

Love you thank you so much for talking about this I hope this gives other woman the strength & power to stand there ground & come forward & for everyone to put a stop to this vile behaviour. You are an amazing actress & a wonderful woman ❤️

[@Mumbler13]

Good for you! This is super brave. I have been a huge fan since Buffy days. I am even more now. 💙👊

[@zagnut36]

In any world this is not Expectable behavior for any man, and I hope that actor who ever he is Never works a day in his life in public again. Guys like this are the reason women are hypersensitive its not fair to nice men and its definitely not fair for a woman any woman to put up with it .

[@konradslomkowski732]

The stuff she went through is fucked up. She is brave

[@auntisthenes2754]

Duh ? A man (in power) playing rather gently, and she lawyered up. Earned 6 years of work for untoward behaviour; sorry I can't relate.I've heard the charges; No wonder that assholes get elected president and that real victims get called feminazis. Pauley perrete NCIS knows about harassment. and knows Wetherley. as a real repeat victim, she supports HIM and his rights to be a moron.So do I. What did she went through ? being sniffed, complimented, asked to act. Pushed around a bit. Wow ! i suppose she never went on stage.

[@CanadaRocks4U]

Such a bad set of events that happens all to often, everywhere this is happening. These are not men! GOD BLESS YOU ELIZA FOR SPEAKING UP. AS WE ALL KNOW IT TAKES A MOUNTAIN OF COURAGE TO REPORT AND IDENTIFY THESE PEOPLE AND ALL KNOWING ABOUT IT !I WAS LOOKING FOR SOME EARLIER AND NEWER FULL MOVIES ON YOU TUBE AND SAW THIS.

[@ma.neliaoyzontrudavies7977]

Super strong woman I love you so much Eliza Dushku😍😍😍

[@Chucky-y3u]

Wow! Just to think, as a trans woman, going through the same harassment at the apartment I'm subleasing. There is no one I can turn to. Being that I didn't have sex with the guy,ore than likely, he's eager to get me out of here. I would had left soon as the harassment started but I needed a place to live. It's been the hardest 2022.

[@auntisthenes2754]

You're familiar with real harassment.And the police doesn't do a thing if you don't press charges; we in France have two ways to do it. You're encouraged to use the first which lets the police bury the case right away. You're very discouraged to really go to justice. If your guy doesn't have money, you'll pay your lawyer. Unless He oversteps and the police has a real case. Which might involve your hospital bills in the US. That's real life. Real harassment. What did the police say ? I am really 100% with you. Be very careful. I doubt you can get him out safely. A lawyer probably would have couseled you to move out, the police too.They are right. If he's declared deranged,you won't touch a dime anyway. get out! Act cool like you want it, you agree,get packing even if you don"t know where to land. make it seem okay.

[@ImYourParalysisDemon]

My heart is broken for you Eliza since childhood you have been my role model This behaviour is absolutely disgusting I’m with you all the way

[@JackieEco]

Courageous 👏👏👏👏

[@phoenixmoon3]

My heart 💜💜💜

[@fishernz]

Brave testimony. I hope Dushku's acting days aren't over.

[@picatrix1]

Oh Eliza 😢 I always liked you and your acting talents. I hope you are ok and healthy. ❤

[@Shazzi24]

I’m so sorry you we subject to this abhorrent treatment from co-stars and CBS. Thank you for being brave and speaking out about harassment in the work place, something women really should not have to be dealing with in this day and age. Hold your head high and keep doing what you do best, don’t let these disgusting men stand in your way. I have to say I’ve always been a fan of your work and look forward to seeing much more of it in the future. 😊❤ 🇦🇺

[@dougwilliamson5770]

If it makes a difference, I won't watch anything with that co-star.

[@FormerTrucker]

This breaks my heart I feel so sad for Eliza. I've been watching the TV series Bull I guess it will be hard to watch it from here on knowing this stuff is occurring to women like Eliza.

[@corymiller536]

She looks different

We love you so much, Eliza!!!

[@enzodunn2577]

I'm so sad to hear this. She is an amazing person. I have loved watching her in all of the shows she's been in. She should and could have beat the crap out of that guy.

[@CBGBMovie]

Wow! So proud of you. You are a strong powerful force. This video is must viewing. So so sorry you had to endure such a horrible abuse, but your voice must be heard. Bravo Eliza.

[@eliseville]

Insane! But with a nation that oversees so much evil, I have begun to expect ever worse every day. Keep strong, @ElizaDushku! Your Buffy & Echo deserve far better!

[@kytim89]

She is talking about Michael Weatherly.

[@geraintramon]

A talented actress and a kind, hard working woman, this is horrific to hear but it’s so important to speak up! So proud of Eliza.

[@alexzarraga3257]

I love you so much on buffy the vampire slayer ❤

[@Kronos74]

Her husband should be ashamed of himself.

[@jonny_mazerati9410]

The guy must be Michael weatherly. It says he’s the lead guy on that show.

[@Luckyandkitty]

OMG this is so disgusting! This binding arbitration is horrible. This AMAZING lady was treated so terribly it's horrible we as a people can help defend her so much of my life has had this amazing woman in it she was my role model and now is belittled by some guy who is a ignorant psycho. Who knows the extent of her trauma, the way she portrayed such a powerful confident lady now she is second guessing herself all the time . Cbs I definitely will boycott u til u fix this u should have fired all them boys not men a real man doesn't conduct himself like that. I wanted to see her act not him she was/ is the real star and by her having the testicles cbs didn't and stood up for herself I love her more I been sexually assaulted over and over and it is life changing and a star of her caliber def shouldn't have been treated with such malice and disrespect. When I was being sexually abused as a kid watching her on buffy made me feel stronger and that one day I could protect myself and I thank u for that. I will always stand by her I'll b looking forward to her getting justice as well as anyone in that situation.😢

[@whitemike7822]

In 10yrs she could be part of the Adam's family. Hope she continues to be successful and ignore the pigs who can't shut their mouths out of respect.

[@marcopolo7604]

Sounds like she's describing the current illegitimate occupant of the white house

[@decisiveliberty]

Who do you think runs the biggest trafficking org globally? It's no mistake the FIRST thing he did was to stop the wall...

[@oldsoulone1217]

@@decisiveliberty I'm an Australian, so I'm not always up to date on American news. Obviously, I know your refering to your current white house occupier, but what I don't know however, is what you mean by stopping the wall???

[@decisiveliberty]

@@oldsoulone1217 Trump started a very effective wall along our southern border, giving the border patrol ample time to reach those trying to get across the border illegally. One of the first executive orders he signed on day one halted the construction of that wall. We are now experiencing 100s of 1000s crossing our southern border as well as the Biden admin fling them covertly all over the country in the middle of the night. Do know we are praying for you guys - your govt favors a police state and we need to be applying pressure on the govt In the form boycotts at every level. We're sharing every vid of police and Political brutality we come across as well as all resistance to the movements of the Elites. Globally, we are all reaching a point of no return, most favoring Liberty. Those that fall to the Elites will not be forgotten either.

[@AvalonMagique]

BOTH parties have a sordid history in their treatment of women in the quiet of their back offices and elsewhere.

[@decisiveliberty]

@@AvalonMagique that's because they are both populated with humans. Though your statement is true, a deeper dive into their histories discloses that though some are from the GoP, we would know them as RINOs. The name Conservative only came about at the time Liberal did, which let other Democrats know who were Globalists at the time (late 1800s). That stigma was provided by Albert Pike, the Rothschild's head henchman. The GOP took it on to separate RINOs from true GOPers, which today are hardly example of the Teddy Roosevelt GOPer who would literally castrate a person found doing such sordid activities. Today there are very few true Democrats and true GOPers, but a huge majority of those known to participate in such activities are Liberals.

[@mikewiilliamswilliams6230]

I’m sorry this happened to you. I have always been your fan. I remember you from Bring it on. You are still beautiful. These disgusting guys need to be in jail.

I have too wonder if her husband wasn’t a billionaire, would she have the ability too speak out. Her costar sounds like a damn narcissist, she set boundaries and he had too try too destroy her

How do guys like that even form on this Earth? They need serious mental therapy, something to tone down those out of control teenage like hormones, and naturally a little jail time might also help curb this insane behavior!

[@jillcooper6371]

You are one of my all time favorite actors. I'm sorry that this happened... But also this is something we need to rise above. The more attention we give the behavior the more the behavior will persist. I say this from experience. I worked on a boat in an engine room. My boss called me "squaw f me twice". The more upset I got the more the guys did it. However when I stopped giving rise to their behavior.... They stopped behaving that way. It was no longer fun for them.
