Bloomberg News' former Washington editor Al Hunt was accused over the course of years by multiple women of giving unsolicited massages and verbally berating employees for minor infractions

Former Bloomberg News Executive Editor for Washington Al Hunt speaks during a taping of "Meet the Press" at the NBC studios February 22, 2009 in Washington, DC.Al Hunt, Bloomberg News' former Washington editor and one of the organization's most visible faces in politics until his 2018 exit, was accused over the course of years by multiple women of giving unsolicited massages and verbally berating employees for minor infractions.

In a statement, a Bloomberg LP spokesperson declined to dispute any of the claims regarding Hunt, saying "there are certainly instances where we wish we had handled some complaints differently.

Hunt's alleged touching wasn't limited to massages, former co-workers said. One time he reached out to hold a female employee's hand, according to a person who witnessed the event. When she thrust it into her pocket to remove it from his reach, the person said, Hunt simply slipped his hand into her pocket as well and held it there. Another time he slapped a woman's bare thighs several times and dared her to tell human resources, according to a person who witnessed it.

One former employee believed that Hunt expected the women to dress provocatively. Once, after asking a woman to do a task for him, this employee was told that Hunt said, "I just love watching her run in heels." "I am certain I never threw a stapler at a reporter," Hunt said. "It is perfectly possible that I did insist — you say yell — to an assistant to find my glasses when they were perched on my head. That has happened at home with my kids, so it's credible."
