Apparently the young woman just killed herself which makes me reconsider everything.

This really isn’t all that different from Ashton Kutcher telling children to be a servant to Obama. People are just stupid.

Wait she did kill herself? Wtf I can't believe this was the fluff peice they wrote.

I’m a black man but in some of these comments I’m seeing a lot of hypocrisy because if this was about white person who said something racist 10 years ago on MySpace you SJW would calling for ban of the movie or for the person to be fired from whatever job they had.

I’m having a REALLLLLLY hard time with these comments. People saying, I was in college at the same time and I’ve been too drunk to consent to sex and we just called it “bad luck”. Are you kidding me??? When you were passed out drunk were you fucked by some guy while his friend shoved his penis in your mouth? And then…

Why is this so nuanced for so many people? I don't get it. The guy raped her. He is not apologizing or acknowledging that in any way. The only reason he is bringing this up now is to try to save his Oscar campaign. His defense is that he has daughters and that his mother lives with him??? He sounds like racist white…

Also, I just read that the victim is dead. She committed suicide after several attempts to do so after the incident. She also withdrew from school shortly after the incident due to constant harassment. Sounds pretty traumatic to me.

Reading more about this case; Seriously, fuck this guy. He continued to harrass his victim and target her. This guy’s a serious bad guy. But of course , Hollywood most likely get over it if his movie does well enough. Reminds me of the Jerrold Carmichael joke about talent vs morals: “do you know how much Woody Allen…

Wtf Jezebel. You had this information for months and you didn’t report it? Because the director’s work was too “important”?

Independent of anything involving the accused director or his talent, Jezebel definitely ‘under reported’ it. If you were a trade publication or strict news site, it might be more permissable... But you’re Jezebel and it seems to go against a lot of what you purport to stand for.

This is the same guy that said he would never play a gay role? I’m always forgetting my sexist, patriarchal homophobes ...

A couple thousand words to defend this rapist that makes movies, but I’m able to find about a million articles condemning any actor/actress that has the nerve to work with Roman Polanski or Woody Allen.

similar sexual assault allegations against famous entertainers like David Bowie

“Careful language” yet he says “persecute” instead of “prosecute.” I'll assume that was an accident.

I think this really says it all: http://wearyourvoicemag.com/identities/rac…

If Jez had been around in 1999, the headline would have been “Penn State Wrestlers Unpunished after Raping Unconscious Teen”. The movie would have never been made after the social media uproar. You know it’s true...

This is bizarrely easy on Parker for a Jezebel article.

This guy sounds truly horrible. The minimizing, the “painful” time for him...what a self-centered dick. Congrats on being so anti-sexual abuse. Because most of us are for it.

Love the kid gloves you’re wearing here. Which you certainly wouldn’t be wearing if he were White or Conservative. She was too drunk to consent and he even invited his buddies. He’s a rapist just as much as all the others you report on. His movie doesn’t change that.

I don’t have to like him to enjoy what he helped create.
