Between the comments on this and the Paris Hilton article I’m getting really sick of the seriously unnecessary snark going on today. I’m more annoyed at the hostility towards the perceived ‘New Jezebel’ than I am at any of the articles today.

I’m all about finding diverse stories to tell, BUT. If you’re a blonde woman with a production company and you want to buy the rights to a story that will be starring YOU....

And if this was Namibia, you’d have a point.

according to the US census, its been 90% white people for 370 of those 400 years. maybe you need to go to school, because you seem unable to do math

um, you do know up until the 90s, the US was 90% white, right?

I'm into it

I will watch this

There’s an awful lot of snark in this post. Are we supposed to hate Reese Witherspoon? Is it because she’s blonde? I am confused.

I noticed this too. Faster than almost every other industry, I think. Hell, Cosby was still touring only a few months ago. I wonder why it's the porn industry that's the model example.

I’m guessing the reason they’ve been so quick to distance themselves is because the Kink.com studios specifically were named as one of the locations where he sexually assaulted one of the accusers and they don’t want to be associated with that especially since I’d guess they know more stuff is coming out as far as…

Well, his public image prior to this was as the guy who was not a threat or disgustingly porn-y.

So a porn studio does a better job at handling sexual assault than a lot of religious institutions.

Cynical, but this is probably a CYA move on kink’s part. Guarantee higher ups in the company knew about him and did nothing because he made them money.

Stories of his abusive on-set behavior have been around for years without any action. This is more like doing something once it becomes a thing.

Probably because without the support of its female employees, the porn industry would utterly collapse and devolve into sex trafficking. I can’t say the same about any pro sports organizations.

He always looks to me like his yarmulke just fell off.

Jeez we spend all this energy and time promoting porn stars as our new idols and they let us down! Who will we look to next for guidance on culture, feminism and radical politics? (NB: Answer has to be in the form of a porn star)

Of interest: The porn industry is quicker to drop someone over allegations of rape than the NFL or NCAA.

Good. And... Does anyone else think he looks like he’s wearing a hairpiece? Like, the sides look like they’re fading into a bald spot, and then there’s that mass on top...
