NBC’s new comedy Great News took a swing at sexual harassment Thursday night, in an episode titled “Honeypot," but didn't choose to name any Democratic men who have misbehaved with unwilling women.

In the October 12th installment of the sitcom about a news producer whose meddlesome mother acquires an internship at her station, members of the crew begin to complain about sexual harassment in the workplace.  However, since the plaintiffs are men — raising accusations about their female boss — coworkers are slow to believe their claims.  As it turns out, the boss is victimizing the men in the name of gender equality in the workplace.

The accusations snowball — beginning with one brave man, whose courage compels others to come forward. (Weinstein much?)  Immediately, the women in the office question what the men may have done wrong — how they might have misunderstood, or whether they are guilty of provocation via what they were wearing.  With its sex reversal, the story spotlights an issue that seems to almost exclusively occur in the opposite direction.

However, the episode couldn’t resist delving into pro-left political idiocy.  A female character claims the men are making up allegations to take down a strong female leader.  As an example of men’s desires to wrongly accuse a woman in power, she references Hillary Clinton being falsely implicated in the Benghazi disaster.  

Uhhh…accused, yes.  Falsely?  Not by a long shot.

Toward the end of the episode, the boss, Diana — played by Tina Fey — reveals to a coworker her reasons for the the misconduct:  

I have fought for workplace equality for 25 years.  I just want what the men get:  $40 million to go away. Roger Ailes got 40 just for whipping it out.  Billy Bush got 9 just for giggling about boobies.  Bill O'Reilly got 25.  But no, I just keep succeeding and succeeding and succeeding and using westbound international flights to create a 175-hour workweek.  And now they wanna promote me again.  I just wanna go away, Carol.  Why won't they let me go away? 

Odd that she couldn’t think of one liberal man who’s been accused of sexual harassment.  There are many to choose from.  (Hello! They named the wife of one with regard to Benghazi.)

Later in the episode, Diana tells an underling:

Maybe someday when you get to be in my position, we'll live in a world where a woman can be a creep and go home with a huge golden parachute.

Oh, hasten the day.
