Former
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's partner has weighed in on his company's nondisclosure agreements, and her response isn't proving to be much less controversial than his.Bloomberg's longtime partner Diana Taylor spoke to CBS This Morning on Tuesday after the former mayor during last week's
Democratic debate defended his company's nondisclosure agreements and said no women have "accused me of doing anything, other than maybe they didn't like a joke I told." Bloomberg later said he'd release three women from their NDAs signed to "address complaints about comments they said I had made," saying they were signed over the "past 30-plus years."Taylor defended Bloomberg on Tuesday, saying he wasn't "accused of doing anything or saying something nasty to a woman" but that "I grew up in that world" and "it was a bro culture."CBS News reports that among the women released from NDAs with Bloomberg was a former sales rep who sued the former mayor and alleged that she told him she was pregnant and he responded, "kill it." Asked what she would say to those bothered by the allegations against Bloomberg and his recent dismissive comments about the use of nondisclosure agreements, Taylor was similarly dismissive, saying, "It was 30 years ago. Get over it." After Sen.
Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) grilled Bloomberg on this issue during the Nevada Democratic debate, don't be surprised to see it come up again during tonight's South Carolina debate, which airs at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on CBS.
