I’ve been getting most of my news through the AP via an app on my phone. I want the facts without the commentary. I don’t watch news on tv unless there’s an event and then I surf between several stations left and right.

Broke as a Joke Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Wait, so a 15 year old is basically claiming statutory rape and nobody 20 years ago said anything? I believe her but it puts them all in a bad light to not have come forward at the time. D84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go the previous page and read her posts she actually participated in the WarnerMedia investigation.

Even worse if it comes up later someone brought it up and they were told to let it go or 'We'll look into it!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been weird to see the same studio behavior from WB legacy executives where they use The Hollywood Reporter to publish character attacks at the same time someone shares their experiences. WarnerMedia needs to flush these people and let them go to a studio museum as dinosaurs. This way it moves forward with a cleaner slate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see that happen, but all the studios are complicit in this behavior and I highly doubt it will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed! For an industry we get such enjoyment from there is such horrible behavior and business practices. No wonder why people leave frustrated at times (or their lives destroyed).

Bosco685 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 Quote Michelle Trachtenberg has updated her statement on the accusations against Joss Whedon. The actress, who played Dawn Summers on Buffy the Vampire Slayer from 2000 to 2003, is adding to a previous statement she made in the wake of her costars' allegations against the series' creator. On Thursday, Trachtenberg, 35, said that there was a rule on the Buffy set that Whedon, 56, could not be alone with her after an unnamed incident. "The last comment I will make on this was there was a rule. He's not allowed in a room alone with Michelle again," she wrote. The Gossip Girl actress did not go into detail about what led to the alleged rule, or who enacted it. A rep for Whedon did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment regarding Trachtenberg's statement she made Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting characters I can talk about when the last of the interesting characters are dead. (I was a teenager and we were well taken care of with meals ) Horrible bosses was a guy that did lines of coke off his desk, hired his dealer as an assistant and was eventually DEMOTED for covering up a weapons charge and sexual assault.
