That’s what Wikipedia says, sure, but that’s only because they give the Soviet whataboutism (which is far older than the 1970s) its own page “And you are lynching Negros” after the phrase they used to deflect criticism of the USSR) for some reason.

There is no evidence that Erin Moriarty suffers from a “plastic surgery addiction.”

Sounds kind of like you want them to be the subjects of...well...a genocide.

If the people distributing the pictures admit they’re fake, there’s not much ground to stand on in terms of the U.S.’s version of libel. Defamation is tricky regardless. You’re supposed to have to show some kind of injury to reputation, though one gets the sense that the requirement isn’t really honored all that…

No you’re missing the point.  For AV/Club to say “We see no evidence…” is ridiculous.  I wasn’t saying it was at all right for MK to call her out like that but let’s not pretend that she doesn’t look vastly different.  And btw, that’s fine, she can do what she wants.  

That’s not whataboutism. Whataboutism is where one country deflects criticism by complaining about problems in another country. It was coined from how the Soviet Union would deflect criticism by the US of their persecution of dissidents with statements like “What about what you did to the Indians or are doing to Black…

If the following image is, in fact, the same woman at different times then WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO HER?!?

How does Katie Holmes fit into this?

This is distracting from the real issue, which is that according to a credible rumour I’ve heard, Moriarty is the descendant of Sherlock Holmes’ adversary and is continuing the work of his criminal empire.

“And while there’s something slightly, let’s say, nostalgic(?) about the idea of Megyn Kelly having genuine influence over anyone—it has been a minute, on that score—”

Plus multiple wars, a refugee crisis, the distributing rise of extreme nationalism

A million homeless? Whatever.

I don’t know. On principle, not letting the psychotic internet fan base of someone you dated 20 years ago dictate your career decisions seems healthy. 

I’ve always been mildly bemused by pop stars reusing the names of world-famous songs. When Rihanna released ‘Sledgehammer’ for Star Trek, were her publishers just kind of sidestepping Peter Gabriel’s superhit single from the 80s?

I’d say No Country for Old Presidents , but to be fair you guys have an awful habit of voting in elderly white dudes.

“I’m sorry, we hade the film measured, and it fell 200 mili-plaudits short of ‘Great’.”

Liman might think it’s painful for this movie to go to streaming, but someone should remind him that pain don’t hurt.

If they promised him a theatrical release then he has a real beef. But maybe a remake of a cheesy 80's action film that most people saw on VHS or cable is not the hill to die on.
