We've seen a wave of victims come forward in recent months to raise awareness of sexual assault across industries. The "It's On Us" movement says everyone should be engaged in trying to end sexual harassment. Kyle Lierman, Founder of "It's On Us," joins Cheddar's Kristen Scholer and Cosmopolitan Editor in Chief Michele Promaulayko for a special episode of Closing Bell. Lierman says this campaign is aimed at changing the way people fundamentally think about sexual harassment. "There are so many ways for men to get involved," said Lierman. "It's on men and all of us to be supportive of survivors." Lierman also says it's imperative to intervene if you see an inappropriate behavior take place. According to a recent report by Cosmopolitan and Survey Monkey, more than a third (36%) of employed men are becoming more aware of their own behaviors towards women compared to 6 month ago. The survey also found that 19 percent of men are less comfortable now interacting with women in the workplace.

Tesla sales jump after months of boycotts
Tesla reported a surprise increase in sales in the third quarter as the electric car maker likely benefited from a rush by consumers to take advantage of a $7,500 credit before it expired on Sept. 30. The company reported Thursday that sales in the three months through September rose 7% compared to the same period a year ago. The gain follows two quarters of steep declines as people turned off by CEO Elon Musk’s foray into right-wing politics avoided buying his company’s cars and even protested at some dealerships. Sales rose to 497,099 vehicles, compared with 462,890 in the same period last year.
