I think they just found the whole situation to be absurd. Also, I'm sure homosexual activity was not as accepted or respected back then.

@ny giants fan raider fan Pat Patterson and Innocence shouldn't be in the same sentence. Dude was guilty of assault many times over, but was protected by Vince's deep pockets. Pat Patterson did his Cream Team His Way 🎶.
He did know that Murray was lying. Hodgson’s own lawyer decided to drop him as a client after McMahon and his team of lawyers and independent private investigators discovered that this wasn’t Hodgson’s first sexual harassment lawsuit. Murray Hodgson made a career out of suing ex employers for the same accusations. The judge in his case not only dismissed his lawsuit, but allegedly called Murray Hodgson , ‘A Habitual liar and con man.’ Murray Hodgson would soon disappear from the spotlight.
'No laughing' as though it is okay for men to be sexually harassed but if it was a woman it would be a problem... glad things have changed. The interviewer is ridiculous 'a defenceless woman you're not'
Around the 9:45 mark Vince says he never looked the other way. In Bret's book, Bret writes the only thing Vince was guilty of is looking the other way.
He did fire him. But rehired him when no truth to the charges were proven. It's very telling however, that Mel Phillips and Terry Garvin were never associated with the WWF/E again.
Which proves that Vince didn’t give a shit about the allegations. He only canned him to begin with to save face until he felt like he could include him back into the fold.
Phil Donahue was certainly THE pioneer of daytime television. There wasn’t a topic off limits. Being as I was born in the late ‘80s I only saw the last six years of his show. I knew whenever I was at my grandparents house, Donahue was always on at 9 am. I was too young to appreciate the topics but that theme song is iconic. Rest easy sir 1935-2024.
That is all my grandma ever watched was Oprah Winfrey, and Donahue. She didn't start watching his show until about 1982 when it was on KTVU channel 2 in the Bay Area in the afternoon. But then in 1985, he moved to ABC. On ABC, he would come on after Oprah Winfrey at 4 PM.
@@pulsarlights2825 Hulk took a lot of his sayings (like Brother!) for instance, and calling his biceps "pythons" among others. He openly admits it in recent interviews when asked who influenced him/helped build the Hulk character.
I wonder why Donahue didn't allow questions about homosexuality in the WWF to be answered. When one member from the audience asked, they went to commercial when someone on the panel was trying to answer and his response was not heard. The other time, Donahue cut the audience member off and went to someone else without giving the panel a chance to respond. Sounds like McMahon may have paid Donahue to keep certain topics out of the discussion as much as possible.
The other possible reason would that the show took place in the middle of the day and back in those days, certain topics of discussion were too sensitive on family friendly shows.
@@mightyknight I understand where you're coming from. That still doesn't make sense though because if content was supposed to be completely family-friendly, they wouldn't have had this episode to begin with. Topics discussed are sexual assault and drug use within the WWF. That subject matter alone makes it less than ideal for a family-friendly episode.
balancer182 it’s not hard to figure out, he adapted to society in the Attitude Era and he’s adapting to society now. Everyone gets offended by every so he can’t do what he used to do
No he isn't. Patterson was & probably still is a predator. Weinstein engaged in mutual encounters. To take a deal that says "have sex with me for the movie role" isn't sex. Those women were prostitutes. They had sex with him in exchange for a favor. They are no better then Weinstein. There is a big difference between rape & cat calling.
The fact Vince didn't at least say "IF that is true that is terrible and I swear to you we will make it right". BUT he went straight into defense mode. THEN to hire Pat right back? WOW.
It was revealed years later that two out of the three dudes lied. No one saw Pat Petterson sexually harassing anyone, no witnesses have ever come forward, could not find anyone 100 percent credible.pat petterson has a wife and kids, they couldn't find a man who ever had sex with petterson
@@fuzzluvver69 It really isn't though, it's more like supporting evidence. Case in point, some women lie about being raped all the time, so there' needs to be more evidence, hence why most rape cases get dismissed.
@@kingofkings69ner Didn't you get the memo? It's apparently "guilty even if proven innocent" nowadays. Anybody can say they're a victim, and social media just believes it instantly without giving the facts of both sides the immense importance they deserve. It's like people don't know the meaning of "evidence" before. So messed up.
I hate that it is brave to be vulnerable. And I hate that getting victimized makes you the vulnerable one l. The perpetrator should be the vulnerable and ashamed one. Just look at the comments here. Just such a shame how many men can't seem to support men who have been abused by other men. If a woman did it, there'd be more sympathy. Men can hurt other men. Women can hurt other women. It's not men vs women. It's the super rich vs 99.999% of us. Don't let them trick you.
All you need to know about Vince McMahon's character on full display on this show over 30 years ago. All his energy on why the victims didnt come forward earlier and trying to find alternative theories on why one of the victims was fired instead of focusing on fixing the issue at hand. Can you imagine how much inappropriate/illegal bahaviour he got away with over his time in the wrestling business? Such a corrupt individual. Hoping he finally faces justice and gets whats coming to him.
Vince looks nervous and guilty as hell and I believe sex abuse and drug were rampant in the wwf and Vince McMahon knew all about it and kept it hidden because it would destroy him and his company
@@BumbleBees77 he's not shocked by the truth. Vince was shocked that Billy was actually saying the quiet part aloud lol. Sexual abuse and the wwe go hand in hand still.
Murray Hodgson did the right thing by checking the audience for laughing at men getting harassed and abused. It can happen to us too folks. Not just the ladies!
it was later discovered hodgson was lying. and while there was indeed strong evidence of terry garvin engaging in abuse of minors, there is no evidence of pat patterson having done the same, even though it might have happened
@@cwp4eva I am so sorry for whatever you went through. J.J. Dillon, the manager of the 4 horsemen, was sexually harassed at WWF in the mid 90s by a woman executive in the HR dept. of all places. He talks about it in his book. It can happen to anyone.
And then pat Patterson was back in the wwf 6 months later. Public relations served its purpose. The fact that Vince brought him back shows Vince not only knew but also supported sexual abuse.
@@Machete87 strange that wrestlers no longer with WWE speak highly and fondly of Pat. If those allegations were true I'd imagine many of these wrestlers would be bashing him. Many wrestlers state that they all knew Pat was gay and no one cared. But for someone lackluster using his name as the big mad molester might help them make some money
@@loisdraper3222 just look at snapchat, all the popular stories on there are full of low iq stupidity and the latest mumble rap lyric. Dont get me wrong, I enjoy memes just like everyone else, but there is a problem with society when people like Mia Khalifa are viewed as icons.
RIP to both of them. On a side note, I had no idea that Randy Orton was Barry’s nephew. One of the biggest stars of the last 15 years in WWE, and his uncle was someone who was most likely permanently blacklisted from the WWF. But kudos to Vince for not holding that against Randy.
He knows the name ORTON is rembered from Cowboy Bob Orton. Randy's father , I think. Same way with Nascar. People like to see familiar names. Barry O really just got started when his ordeal started and he got out.

@@davinalopez-oz1ez Where did you read that? I don't know what the outcome of all this was or what became of him since this. He should be interviewed today. I assumed that WWF settled with him and gave him a payout to end it. But I could be wrong.
They were using straw man arguments and whataboutisms to deflect what was really going on. The fact is, everything they were accusing of was true in some way, and I did enjoy the announcer going toe to toe with Vince, after all the atrocities that have occurred under that sociopath's watch.
Vince is the guy with a dead body in the trunk, gets pulled over by a cop, and doesnt break a sweat as he chats him up as is let off with a warning. Textbook psychopath
For all in that audience who said if the sex abuse was reported,it would have been stopped. Let me say this,I worked in a messenger company, where sex advances to both men and women were made everyday. Sure many went to the police, but mever was it taken seriously. So people have to understand that corruption extends out to side of wwe all the way to police. The pay offs are made,so no matter how many sex abuses we're reported,nothing was done. Bruno was correct on saying he would have been finished in the business,and the sex abuse would have continued,too many in the audience are naivve
Are you really that sick in the head to where you think making a sexual advance towards someone or hitting on them is considered corrupt?.... How do you think most couples meet and end up having children?...lol! It's no wonder the birth rate in the west seems to be plummeting quicker than temperatures in mid-January... You people have made men and women so scared of one another that they won't even talk to one another, let alone fuck...lol! What a bunch of puritanical nutcases these last two generations have become.
Vince is pure evil. The things he’s said and done are reprehensible. He belongs in prison. The text messages that have come out between he and a young lady, are terrible. Such abhorrent behavior by Vince has to be stopped, and I hope that he will be dealt with swiftly by authorities.
Well Donahue said the WWF made a BILLION dollars in the early 90s but almost went out of business due to lack of funds by the late 90s so I would assume he paid a boatload of money to survive it.
Yea but he beat the case and the federal government. But you’re right, this case screams FIXED... this was some CRAZY ammunition to be thrown at Vince and for him to come out unscathed. Think being a multi-millionaire, damn near BILLION dollar (at the time) CEO of a BILLION dollar corporation had anything to do with the outcome???.... cuz I do. 😏
Ah, the days when a CEO would go on TV to defend their company. Now lawyers would stop him, you have nothing to gain by going on the show Mr. MacMahon. This'll all blow over.
I don't think the WWF was a public company at the time. Not being a legal entity, the WWF didn't have legal representation separate from Vince. So, if Vince ruined the company he was ruining his own bank account.
It was never proven that he molested anyone. And no one ever even took him to court over it. So what do you want? Ya can't just fire someone for allegations. These days people get away with that screwed up shit. But back then we actually cared about people's rights and being innocent until proven guilty.

Vince was acting during this. It's a trick to psych people out. Act nervous to make them get comfortable, take a few hits on the chin to make them feel powerful & then once their ego starts to take over, they will begin to make mistakes & then you wait for the shot & take it. Vince McMahon is very smart in terms of psychology.
Dude held his own against Vince. I admire that. He spoke straight facts and Vince just couldn’t handle being called out, hence why he proceeded to insult the dude’s skills as a ring announcer in a conversation where it doesn’t belong.
LongLostYellowRanger I think they are laughing at Donahue's reactions as to what's happening on his show at a particular moment. It's almost like The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. I think I know another reason on why they're laughing: I think...I think it's because this audience is not seriously buying any of this. It's like they have already made up their minds on who they are going to listen to and not listen to. It's also a possibility that they may not mean to laugh, it's just the way it's presented to them.

He would've looked worse to not show. This way he can say he appears to care.
Sammartino brings the most weight to this conversation as far as truth goes IMHO. No union, blackball, etc. Also LOL at Meltzer correcting Vince, absolute gold.
I chuckled at that part too. Meltzer didn’t hesitate either, Vince tried to lie as usual, and got caught
@@AshleySmith19912can you pls tell me when he corrected him?

As a fan of Vince my whole life, he knew exactly what was going on and to have under age kids getting sexual favors makes me sick
They might have been gone but he still knew what was going on
@ny giants fan raider fan Pat Patterson and Innocence shouldn't be in the same sentence. Dude was guilty of assault many times over, but was protected by Vince's deep pockets. Pat Patterson did his Cream Team His Way 🎶.
there was never any proof anything like that was going on and there still ain't
He did know that Murray was lying.
Hodgson’s own lawyer decided to drop him as a client after McMahon and his team of lawyers and independent private investigators discovered that this wasn’t Hodgson’s first sexual harassment lawsuit.
Murray Hodgson made a career out of suing ex employers for the same accusations. The judge in his case not only dismissed his lawsuit, but allegedly called Murray Hodgson , ‘A Habitual liar and con man.’ Murray Hodgson would soon disappear from the spotlight.
I can't look at Donahue without seeing Leslie Neilson 😂
Or Wayne sprouse
He’s serious. And don’t call him Shirley.
😂😂😂
It’s so strange to me that the crowd laughs in very serious moments regarding sexual harassment
People always find male sexual assualt or rape funny.
This has aged badly for Vince McMahon.
'No laughing' as though it is okay for men to be sexually harassed but if it was a woman it would be a problem... glad things have changed. The interviewer is ridiculous 'a defenceless woman you're not'
its a good point. his job is to get points across to American daytime TV's retarded audience
...that's Donahue.
It’s insane. I grew up in those times; pretty cringeworthy, in retrospect.
Vince had that furious "GODDAAMMIITT!" look the whole time
“How many homosexuals are in your neighborhood? Report back !” Donahue was always so witty 😂
Outstanding video post and archival information. Thank you for sharing this.
it is so not funny to laugh at the fact that men where getting sexually abused it is so disgraceful
Well said he has to bring the audience back by saying this has been a not so funny issue for woman double standards
B real, fuck off

Because of men world getting bad day by day IM SHAMED

I'm sending a postcard for Donahue tickets right now
Don't forget a self-addressed stamped envelope for a transcript of the show.
This post made my day!!!!!
Donahue and Geraldo were the best
Remember postcards only please.
Me too. Maybe we can get seats next to each other. I always wanted to go see Springer live back during its peak.
Around the 9:45 mark Vince says he never looked the other way. In Bret's book, Bret writes the only thing Vince was guilty of is looking the other way.
@@GibboFrank ooof you're a noob

If Vince had any integrity, he would have fired Patterson, but he's still with the WWE as I type this! smh
When it comes crashing down and it hurts inside
That's his BUTT BUDDY!
On May Dirdy-Burst at Ouber Dee Hedge (1998)
He did fire him...but charges were dropped and so he was rehired
He did fire him. But rehired him when no truth to the charges were proven. It's very telling however, that Mel Phillips and Terry Garvin were never associated with the WWF/E again.
Pat Petterson was right back in the WWF after this. He was let go for the Donahoe show and got back on once it was over.
if i am being honest i don't think he fired Patterson at all. i think Vince jus told Pat to lie low n stay put til it all blew over.
@@Machete87 yeah gave him paid Leave til it blew over. Still was part of creating story lines just didn't go to shows.
@@urbanflavorz yes he was him and Brisco were "stooges" to vince on the shows years later. Idk if you are meaning something else though
@@Machete87Patterson packed more fudge than Betty Crocker.
Which proves that Vince didn’t give a shit about the allegations. He only canned him to begin with to save face until he felt like he could include him back into the fold.
Phil Donahue was certainly THE pioneer of daytime television. There wasn’t a topic off limits. Being as I was born in the late ‘80s I only saw the last six years of his show. I knew whenever I was at my grandparents house, Donahue was always on at 9 am. I was too young to appreciate the topics but that theme song is iconic. Rest easy sir 1935-2024.
That is all my grandma ever watched was Oprah Winfrey, and Donahue. She didn't start watching his show until about 1982 when it was on KTVU channel 2 in the Bay Area in the afternoon. But then in 1985, he moved to ABC. On ABC, he would come on after Oprah Winfrey at 4 PM.
First time watching this Feb 1 2024.
Dave Meltzer looks like he just jumped out of the Goodfellas movie and Bruno Sammartino is clearly a Family Boss.
You are being far too generous to Meltzer. He's too weaselly and inert to be like anyone off Goodfellas.
Vince McMahons hair is super clutch in this. That's why he won the case
Lmao.😁👏🏽👍🏽
32:50 Vince is thinking "watch your words Dave or I'll have your backstage VIP ticket banned"
Watching this today with Vince on it is the pinnacle of irony 😂😂😂

Meltzer is literally right next to Vince on that panel. I wonder how that felt 😂
I doubt he felt much. Wasn't like they weren't in contact at that time.
Love watching these old segments that are coming up. Would never have been able to watch this in my country back in the day.
I wonder why Donahue didn't allow questions about homosexuality in the WWF to be answered. When one member from the audience asked, they went to commercial when someone on the panel was trying to answer and his response was not heard. The other time, Donahue cut the audience member off and went to someone else without giving the panel a chance to respond. Sounds like McMahon may have paid Donahue to keep certain topics out of the discussion as much as possible.
The other possible reason would that the show took place in the middle of the day and back in those days, certain topics of discussion were too sensitive on family friendly shows.
@@mightyknight I understand where you're coming from. That still doesn't make sense though because if content was supposed to be completely family-friendly, they wouldn't have had this episode to begin with. Topics discussed are sexual assault and drug use within the WWF. That subject matter alone makes it less than ideal for a family-friendly episode.
@@kasshmoney4423Perhaps
Vince survived this, he survived WCW, but for some reason, he cannot seem to counter the PG era.
he's an old out of touch man, age has caught up to him and he refuses to accept reality
He also survived New Generation and Benoit.

@@travismcdonald6576 How do you know?
J Pennington because vince had his back. But it was justice when Randy savage banged his daughter
No he isn't. Patterson was & probably still is a predator. Weinstein engaged in mutual encounters. To take a deal that says "have sex with me for the movie role" isn't sex. Those women were prostitutes. They had sex with him in exchange for a favor. They are no better then Weinstein. There is a big difference between rape & cat calling.
The fact Vince didn't at least say "IF that is true that is terrible and I swear to you we will make it right". BUT he went straight into defense mode. THEN to hire Pat right back? WOW.
It was revealed years later that two out of the three dudes lied. No one saw Pat Petterson sexually harassing anyone, no witnesses have ever come forward, could not find anyone 100 percent credible.pat petterson has a wife and kids, they couldn't find a man who ever had sex with petterson
there was never any proof that he did anything

@@jsmith3946 You seem to be under the false pretence that witness testimony isn't admissible as evidence. And you're wrong.
@@fuzzluvver69 It really isn't though, it's more like supporting evidence. Case in point, some women lie about being raped all the time, so there' needs to be more evidence, hence why most rape cases get dismissed.

They were lying
@@kingofkings69ner Didn't you get the memo? It's apparently "guilty even if proven innocent" nowadays.

@@redrain860 Like Johnny Depp and Amber Turd before the trial? Yeah people are gullible these days
Vince a dB then and still a dB now
I hate that it is brave to be vulnerable. And I hate that getting victimized makes you the vulnerable one l. The perpetrator should be the vulnerable and ashamed one. Just look at the comments here. Just such a shame how many men can't seem to support men who have been abused by other men. If a woman did it, there'd be more sympathy. Men can hurt other men. Women can hurt other women. It's not men vs women. It's the super rich vs 99.999% of us. Don't let them trick you.
Vince McMahon is just as much of a creep back then as he is now but nowadays he has way more money and power. Send this guy to jail
Ironically this was way more entertaining than anything WWE has produced in the last 15 years.
All you need to know about Vince McMahon's character on full display on this show over 30 years ago. All his energy on why the victims didnt come forward earlier and trying to find alternative theories on why one of the victims was fired instead of focusing on fixing the issue at hand. Can you imagine how much inappropriate/illegal bahaviour he got away with over his time in the wrestling business? Such a corrupt individual. Hoping he finally faces justice and gets whats coming to him.

Respect to Vince for agreeing to appear on the show to face and deny those allegations, knowing fully well that his company was guilty of all of them.

This needs to be on Dark side of the ring season 4, it's too bad that Bruno and Barry Orton isn't here to give their side of the story
RIP to both of them.
On a side note, I had no idea that Randy Orton was Barry’s nephew. One of the biggest stars of the last 15 years in WWE, and his uncle was someone who was most likely permanently blacklisted from the WWF. But kudos to Vince for not holding that against Randy.
He knows the name ORTON is rembered from Cowboy Bob Orton. Randy's father , I think. Same way with Nascar. People like to see familiar names. Barry O really just got started when his ordeal started and he got out.
i think Barry was killed for speaking out.

They were using straw man arguments and whataboutisms to deflect what was really going on. The fact is, everything they were accusing of was true in some way, and I did enjoy the announcer going toe to toe with Vince, after all the atrocities that have occurred under that sociopath's watch.
@ny giants fan raider fan Your grammar and use of all caps are worse than an atrocity.
Vince is the guy with a dead body in the trunk, gets pulled over by a cop, and doesnt break a sweat as he chats him up as is let off with a warning. Textbook psychopath
Watching this now in 2024 knowing what Vince is accused of sheds a whole new light on his appearance on this show.
For all in that audience who said if the sex abuse was reported,it would have been stopped. Let me say this,I worked in a messenger company, where sex advances to both men and women were made everyday. Sure many went to the police, but mever was it taken seriously. So people have to understand that corruption extends out to side of wwe all the way to police. The pay offs are made,so no matter how many sex abuses we're reported,nothing was done. Bruno was correct on saying he would have been finished in the business,and the sex abuse would have continued,too many in the audience are naivve
Are you really that sick in the head to where you think making a sexual advance towards someone or hitting on them is considered corrupt?.... How do you think most couples meet and end up having children?...lol!
It's no wonder the birth rate in the west seems to be plummeting quicker than temperatures in mid-January... You people have made men and women so scared of one another that they won't even talk to one another, let alone fuck...lol! What a bunch of puritanical nutcases these last two generations have become.
man, vince really did not handle this well. i saw the charges were dropped shortly hereafter, and patterson was re-hired. that's shameful.
@Anant Raman Multiple people have made similar comments about him outside of Billy Graham.

Ah, the days when a CEO would go on TV to defend their company. Now lawyers would stop him, you have nothing to gain by going on the show Mr. MacMahon. This'll all blow over.
I'm surprised at how many went on TV to talk about these allegations!!! Donahue, CNN, Arsenio Hall and who knows who else.
I don't think the WWF was a public company at the time. Not being a legal entity, the WWF didn't have legal representation separate from Vince. So, if Vince ruined the company he was ruining his own bank account.
The fact that Patterson still works for WWE is all that needs to be said.
It was never proven that he molested anyone. And no one ever even took him to court over it. So what do you want? Ya can't just fire someone for allegations. These days people get away with that screwed up shit. But back then we actually cared about people's rights and being innocent until proven guilty.

I think I know another reason on why they're laughing: I think...I think it's because this audience is not seriously buying any of this. It's like they have already made up their minds on who they are going to listen to and not listen to. It's also a possibility that they may not mean to laugh, it's just the way it's presented to them.
