"And I think what it really comes down to is that he helped himself to a part of my body.”

Reporter groped on live TV not sure whether she will pursue criminal charges.

A reporter who was groped on live TV while covering a running event on Tuesday said she was going to "take my time" in deciding whether to pursue criminal charges against the runner that slapped her backside.

Alex Bozarjian, a reporter for the NBC affiliate WSAV in Savannah, Ga., was covering an annual running event on Saturday when a runner ran by and appeared to grab her backside.

“I think what is most important here is he took my power and I’m trying to take that back,” Bozarjian told “CBS This Morning” on Tuesday. “And whether I am open to it or not, I want to take my time with that. And I think what it really comes down to is that he helped himself to a part of my body.”

Bozarjian described her reaction as “disbelief” and added that “the emotion is extremely relatable for women all over the world.”

Bozarjian said that the runner attempted to reach out through the station.

“He did try to make contact with our station ... and kind of was saying that his intentions were not to hurt me — he didn’t intend to do it, which [I’m] not going to really debate that because he did hurt me,” she said in the Tuesday interview.

Joseph Turner, an attorney for the runner who has been identified as Tommy Callaway, said in a statement obtained by The Hill that his client “did not act with any criminal intentions. Tommy is a loving husband and father. ... We do not expect any criminal charges, and we are working with those involved to correct the situation.”

A video of the incident went viral over the weekend and shows Bozarjian continuing with her coverage seconds after the incident, although she appears visibly shaken.

Bozarjian posted the video herself, telling the runner that he “violated, objectified, and embarrassed me.”

She has since filed a police report with the Savannah Police Department, and Callaway has been banned from future Savannah Sports Council races.

She is well within her rights to object and press charges for the unwanted violation of her body. However, saying she was "objectified" is quite the stretch, as female reporters like her are hired primarily on their looks. Old and ugly need not apply.

I don't know why she is worrying her pretty little head about a compliment.

He smacked her butt... oh look end of the world.

I'm not really sure what kind of sentencing she's expecting...

I was pinched on the butt by a woman a few years ago. I was in a wetsuit and was walking up the stairs with my surfboard and she was behind me. She reached up and grabbed my butt cheek hard. When I looked back, I was shocked, but she was leering. Strange thing, she was with a little kid, too. Never happened before or since.

I am no spring chick, I took it as a compliment.

I guess I should have started shrieking like a ninny snowflake and sued her to stay consistent with the times.

How would you react ( and I am assuming that you are a man) by being slapped on the butt by an unknown man ( maybe he is gay)

Who cares? Gay or not. What does being gay have to do with this story and making up an anecdotal situation? The reporter could have spun around and clocked the guy and been totally in line. If in your made up story a gay (or straight guy) does that to me they're either getting punched in the mouth or I knew it was a joke and I'd laugh. It's not complicated. People gotta get a little thicker skin. Male or female.

Al Franken approves!

Now, if he kneeled, stuck his head up her dress, and started nuzzling hard into her butt cheeks like a hound dog chasing a bitch in heat, that might have been going a little too far.

Slapping is assault. She can press charges. No need for the rest of the verbal fluff though.

She looked like that she liketid it.
10   Ceffer   2019 Dec 10, 12:11pm  

She should have stuck around for the baton pass.

I had my ass grabbed by a drunk womyn in a hotel a few years ago (there was some kind of reunion/party with a lot of drunk people roaming around in hotel where I stayed). No big deal, just said "lady, I am not interested, knock it off" and that was it.

Of course, I should have escalated it by calling police, suing the hotel and her, and crying about my feewings being hurt...

Women look upon their beauty and desirability as an asset that you cannot partake of for free.

You're covering a sports event on TV where people are high on endorphins, stand in the middle of the race track and don't want to be touched? Okaayyy. She should be happy she didn't get mowed over. Fuck this attention whoring.

Probably would tell him to not do it again. I wouldn't like it, but I don't like being shoved around on a bus either, yet it happens every day. I'll file this under "privileged class" problems.

I wouldn't think it worth 24 hours in jail or even $50 fine.

In the old days, such an action would be called "getting fresh," and the man would receive a slap in the face. His buds would just smirk and say "you had that coming."
