“History” has no place in a criminal court. I’m black. Don’t try to pull that “history shows” bullshit on me.

What about the ex-GMG guys on the list? Shouldn’t you disclose that AJ Daulerio, Sam Biddle, Tommy Craggs, and Greg Howard were named? Or at the very least disclose that ex-GMG guys were listed without posting their names? Are you legally not permitted to talk about that or something?
A few years ago when someone was accused of rape, people would say,”if you really didn’t do it, why don’t you sue for defamation? Ohh, you won’t because the legal process could then be used to show that you did commit it!”. And now when the accused do pursue defamation it’s used as more “evidence” that they are really…
That’s it. I’m sufficiently outraged. Someone find out who catered this film and bring me their head. And a Cuban sandwich if you see one.
Yes, it’s possible. It’s also possible that people just love to point fingers and feel superior. Do you know all about your friends’ and colleagues’ improprieties? If so, you’re waaaay better than me. So, hey, cheers to that — have at it, tear him down.
Or? You could act intelligently and not stir the pot with…
Man filing defamation suit attempts to identify people he claimed defamed him. This all seems pretty normal? Like, if he uses that information to retaliate outside the court system, that’s shitty and likely a crime in it’s own right... but until then, it just seems like standard discovery procedure?
So he should only work with the “nice” people in Hollywood.
Yea, I find it weird that one actor is being given all this shit instead of say, the people who fucking hired signer or the remnants of Queen who had their fingers in this pot, especially when I am pretty sure Malek signed on before Singer did, and Malek’s inability to get along with that creep was part of what got…
You didn’t watch the movie so I don’t know how you’ve managed to form so many opinions about it. I didn’t know much about Freddy’s history before watching, but was very moved by his relationship with Hutton in the movie. It is not a centerpiece of the film at all, but they definitely show the significance of the…
I think it’s petty to bash the actors on this. Few can have the privilege of turning down roles bases on principle, but principle alone won’t put food on the table and a roof above your head. I’m sure George Clooney can turn down a role, as I’m sure he’s got more lined up, but upcoming artists trying to break in don’t …
“You worked with a guy who did bad things until he was fired for doing more bad things” Is a Shaky Accusation.
1. Rami was attached to this project PRIOR to Brian Singer, and was given zero choice in the matter as Queen INSISTED Singer be the director. He was also pretty unknown and not really in a position to push for a change.
Your outrage is not the same for people other than you. Malek may or may not have known. Perhaps he knew but did not want to get mixed in with it. Why don’t you complain about all the other actors on all his other sets since the Apt Pupil allegations began to surface. Singer is guilty, I think we all pretty much know…
What allegations have been made about your boss? Are you aware of everything he or she has been accused of in their personal life? Do you make it a point to? Do you listen to all the gossip about everyone above you so that you can weigh your morals against every issue they have potentially been involved in?
It’s easy…
What the “I didn’t know” defense almost always means is
Show of hands: how many of you have taken jobs without Googling your future employer?
Do we expect every Jez author who wrote for the site at the same time as Hugo Schwyzer to have quit writing . . . people in glass houses and all that.
I’m really not sure why you’re trying to drag Rami Malek for this. He says he didn’t know much about Bryan Singer prior to making the movie - in your reporting you yourself say that the last major reporting about Singer was five years ago. So perhaps he’s being truthful and didn’t know.
The premise of this article is wrong. As someone who works a freelance lifestyle (musician, not actor, and certainly lower budget) I can tell you that you often have NO IDEA what is going on in other people’s lives when you sign on. You don’t walk into an office every morning where people are gossiping about what’s…
Where’s the name of the production company that hired Singer? Where’s the name of the principals of that company that hired Singer?
