Darcy: I don't consider being called a racist a "stupid rumor". It's not like Mary said he slept with someone at the company Christmas party. Or that he has a drinking problem. Being labeled a "racist" can have drastic impacts on his career down the line, no matter what line of work they're in. I don't want every "random rumor" about me repeated to me, but if someone at WORK was telling even ONE person I was a racist, I would DEFINITELY want to know that. Wouldn't you?!

It is a stupid rumor if it isn't true. If my actions or words prove me to not be racist I would rather ignore the rumor. Paying attention to it really only makes it gain strength.Why would you want to give strength and feed an untrue rumor? If it is a rumor, no need to spread it. If it isn't, then I have never, ever seen a racist successfully hide their racism and the entire work place will know soon.
