Unlike Hill, Wright said that Thomas had explicitly tried to date her, and had even shown up uninvited at her house one night.

The call for new hearings comes after David Brock, who wrote The Real Anita Hill which slammed Hill, now claims that he not only lied in his book, but also went so far as to intimidate and threaten potential witnesses who would have confirmed parts of Hill's story.
Brock portrayed Savage as unreliable in his book and claims he tried to intimidate her with information that he claims was given to him by a friend of Thomas, Mark Paoletta.
Ironically, feminists such as Smeal have already provided a ready defense for supporters of Thomas -- the worst that can be said about Thomas is that while under oath he might have lied about his sex life.
