Despite Taylor Swift’s grand attempt at rebranding her reputation from “innocent girl who cries teardrops on her guitar while writing love songs in her room” to “bad bitch who sits on golden throne surrounded by snakes,” the internet still doesn’t think she’s that bad.

Looking for an “afternoon pick-me-up,” MTV’s chief TV critic Inkoo Kang called out on Twitter for photos of women in suits on Tuesday, paired with a “gang’s all here” image of the kickass women of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Kang wrote she was inspired by Thor: Ragnarok actor Tessa Thompson’s “boxy plaid.”

Television host Charlie Rose is the latest media man to be accused of sexual misconduct, and his female colleagues are weighing in.

After The Washington Post reported that eight women had come forward to speak out against Rose on Monday, CBS This Morning’s Gayle King and Norah O’Donnell addressed the allegations on air, acknowledging Rose was their co-worker but making it clear they stand with the women who came forward.

“It takes a lot of courage for these women to come forward and I think that they should continue to do so,” O’Donnell said, kicking off the emotional segment. “This is a moment that demands a frank and honest assessment about where we stand and more generally the safety of women.” Read more…
