You do realize who Watson is? And what he represents in the community and to these businesses? And the compromised position some of these women were inevitably in when they likely had to weigh acceding to what he wanted versus potentially losing their source of income?
Do you seriously not understand how this works or are you deliberately obtuse?

I don't think that's a good example. I mean, first of all, I never said Watson "did nothing wrong". Second, propositioning an employee for sex isn't necessarily a crime. If that's the best comparison you've got, it sounds like you agree with me.
Watson contacted all of these women. They weren't missing out on anything by calling him a creep and leaving. They were missing out on
his business but if what they're saying is true, that'd be preferential to what they're accusing him of, no?
