A popular American comic who was accused of s*xual misconduct and s*xual harassment last year released a video about the situation over the weekend. It is being widely referred to as an apology… but, it’s not. It’s what I call a “responsogy” (I made that up all by myself): a carefully crafted response that wants you to believe it’s an apology.
*
It’s not an apology because he centered himself in it. He was introspective and emotional and honest and earnest… but about all the wrong things. He’s sad about letting people down. He’s sorry (kinda) for having a “hole” caused by the loneliness he felt on the road, insecurity, etc. and that he tried to fill it with deviant s*xual behavior. He’s sad that he’s got to live with the fact that his young son will grow up knowing what he did. And he wants our sympathy because, you see, he couldn’t control himself; s*x addiction is actually the real villain here.
*
The majority of the video is an explanation of how he feels about his behavior. He was obsessed with getting s*x. He was defenseless and powerless to his desires. He’s even humblebraggadociously ashamed that as a celebrity, he has influence and power and access to women, and that he let it go to his head. He blamed his cavalier attitude about his transgressions on the flippant mindset he has as a comedian.
*
But now he’s putting in the work. Dammit, it’s really hard for him to look at himself and admit that this is who he is, and that he has to live with this. But he’s getting the help he needs now. He’s on the path to recovery and he’s doing well.
*
Again, it’s all about him.
*
So, no… this is not an apology. Yes, he actually says “sorry” – but this responsogy video misses the mark in every way and I’m not sure what’s more unacceptable – that he believes his earnestness was worth sharing, or that his team, which no doubt includes PR, blessed this train wreck.
*
I hope none of his accusers have the misfortune of seeing this.

Hyatt, the global hotel and resort chain, is scrambling to answer for photos and videos showing apparent members of the insurrectionist mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol on 1/6/21 relaxing and socializing in the lobby of the D.C Grand Hyatt.
*
These are people who presumably took part in the domestic terrorism and violent rioting at the Capitol complex. They are unmasked and unbothered.
*
The police were not summoned. Security guards are not moving to eject them. The FBI did not swarm the building. Hotel staff seems to be letting them go about their business… despite knowing that mere hours earlier, they violently looted and siege the Capitol in an effort to 1) overturn the results of the General Election and 2) start a revolution to keep the 45th president in power.
*
WTEAF? Is this the appropriate response from the Hyatt? What would you have done?
*
According to PRWeek, a Hyatt spokesperson shared the following statement: “The Grand Hyatt Washington team worked to address the situation in an effort to ensure guests were following COVID-19 protocols, including by offering face coverings or requesting guests return to guest rooms. We can confirm that, as a result of these efforts, individuals ultimately returned to their guestrooms, vacated the premises or complied with these protocols without incident. We will continue to work to enforce protocols so that guests are aware of their responsibility in helping protect the health and safety of our colleagues and their fellow guests.”
*
Make it make sense. PRedictable = Preventable.
