NYT Suspends White House Reporter Amid Harassment Probe

Several women told Vox about their experiences with Glenn Thrush.

The New York Times has suspended its star White House reporter Glenn Thrush amid a sexual harassment probe, Vox reported Monday. Several women told the news site about alleged sexual misconduct by Thrush, who previously rose to prominence as a senior writer for Politico. Laura McGann, who authored the story for Vox, detailed her own accusations, writing: “Five years ago, when Thrush and I were colleagues at Politico... he caught me off guard, put his hand on my thigh, and suddenly started kissing me.” She added: “Thrush says that he recalls the incident differently.” The Times issued a statement: “We intend to fully investigate and while we do, Glenn will be suspended. We support his decision to enter a substance abuse program.”
