60 Minutes' Lesley Stahl on the #MeToo movement: "It's been profound, it's been historic, and in some cases, it's been unfair"

"There's no sliding scale, there has to be some nuance here," Stahl said of the sexual misconduct allegations that have brought down powerful men. Stahl didn't mention her fired former boss Jeff Fager in making her comments on Monday at the Port Huron Town Hall appearance. She expressed similar sentiments today at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit, without mentioning Fager, saying: “It has been very painful, and as a woman, when it hits home, it’s so confusing. I think there have been men who have been accused, and their careers ruined — completely ruined — destroyed and crushed, and they’re not Harvey Weinstein.” She also said today: “There are absolute cases of rape, attempted rape, perpetual assault, that are obviously predatory. Over here, there is a category that doesn’t need to have their lives destroyed.”
