It means you can't say anything about your firing/dismissal other than you were let go and the reason they gave for it.<br /><br />I doubt very highly that Muhney groped anyone. His contract had been renewed just this past spring (March, I believe) for two years. What better way to make sure someone can never come back than to completely blacken their name, even if it's not true? Look how many people are already saying he IS guilty with nothing more to go on than an anonymous post on another soap web site....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-24842840818357469982014-01-08T06:06:52.526-05:002014-01-08T06:06:52.526-05:00Shut up until you know the truth.Shut up until you know the truth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-13235679871173602092014-01-07T01:13:08.227-05:002014-01-07T01:13:08.227-05:00The "backpack of hubris" comment is a di...The "backpack of hubris" comment is a direct quote by Michael in his interview with Nelson Branco on December 18th.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-72956994089472526532014-01-05T20:39:16.573-05:002014-01-05T20:39:16.573-05:00I agree with Sharon, and I am so piss off with the...I agree with Sharon, and I am so piss off with the allegation, this is not right.

I read he also “walked around with a big backpack full of hubris”! I’m sure the studio ran a very extensive investigation on this situation; you don’t say something like this about a person if it wasn’t true! There is many other reason to fire someone! I’m glad they took this course of action he deserves it; I know I wouldn’t want to work with someone like this wondering when he was going to touch me inappropriately! While out of work he should spend his time getting some psychiatric help!!!!!!

He responded by saying that he was very grateful for my concern. Sometime after that, my e-mail account was hacked into, and, apparenty, some very nasty things were being sent to my e-mail connections. Muhney contacted me, quite perturbed, and cut me off from his e-mail connections. I didn't blame him. I don't know what to say about these new revelations, other than I am appalled at such behavior. Is he going through a mid-life crisis? Is it a '7 year itch?' The best analogy I can make is akin to John Edwards' very public confession to ABC News, (Aug 2008) when he said that he had reached such heights that he believed he 'could do whatever you want, there won't be any consequences, you're invincible.' If these allegations are true about Muhney, and I am afraid they are, I would suggest that he take a good close look at himself in the mirror, and admit that his actions, and his actions alone, caused his own undoing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-28935051040853022202014-01-04T18:12:50.907-05:002014-01-04T18:12:50.907-05:00If that were true, Muhney would have said so.

If the employer has received legitimate complaints against a contract employee, then they might just wait and release that person when they can per the terms of the contract -- thereby avoiding a formal investigation and any legally-based dismissal as with regular employees. End of discussion. I notice the TMZ article uses the phrase "the new allegations were the proverbial 'straw that broke the camel's back.'" If true, it sounds like there had been other issues raised over time and these new allegations were some kind of tipping point. They may looked at the calendar, saw that his contract cycle was forthcoming and considered that was simply the easiest way to go. - jmho<br />FoxCranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13826849478948616154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-27271650145935840912014-01-04T16:45:12.708-05:002014-01-04T16:45:12.708-05:00Why is everyone blaming him.

I say this, because that's exactly six weeks prior to December 17 when he made the public announcement that he was being cut. I recall that when the show let Nia Peeples go, then brought her back, she said in an interview that it was because they hadn't given her the proper six-weeks notice prior to when her next 26-week cycle was to begin. I'm thinking his contract cycles began in December (based on his June 2015 contract date). IOW, if they wanted to cut him quick and easy, simply based on the terms of his contract and cycle dates, then they'd have gone by the book and given him that six-week notice in November. - jmhoFoxCranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13826849478948616154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-90766854722974386102014-01-04T15:14:14.337-05:002014-01-04T15:14:14.337-05:00When I first hear about this I thought it was prod...When I first hear about this I thought it was producer related. Now this is a whole different ballgame. What the hell was he thinking? What makes this so disgusting is he is a married man with children, who he apparently didn't give a thought to. And then there is Hunter who is only 20 yrs old. What in the name of god was he thinking or trying to prove besides to humiliate and sexually harass a young girl who is also a castmate.

More likely, if he indeed did this, he would have left quietly. And certainly not given an interview afterwards. . And as some have posted on other sites, he would have been fired immediately after the complaint. Based on the way his storyline is playing now, (with 3 more weeks left before he leaves), it appears his dismissal was in the works for some time before he was let go. So I can't help but be skeptical about this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-56758582930712045142014-01-04T12:20:58.170-05:002014-01-04T12:20:58.170-05:00I knew his firing had to do with inappropriate beh...I knew his firing had to do with inappropriate behavior behind the scenes.
