Was Hardwick even named directly? IIRC, his allegation was always in terms of "ex-boyfriend" or a related vagueness and bunch of people just internet detctive'd the guy to be Hardwick

Crackbone posted:Note: this isn’t sealioning, or some sort of backdoor MRA bullshit. Genuinely curious to hear why given the circumstances he shouldn’t get his jobs back. So for you, because this is where I'm at on the subject, and might explain the logic of people who are upset with this, I'm gonna offer a question back. If this whole thing were slander on his character, why did he not sue? Because the thing that kinda strikes me here, especially with how many people are being very, very silent around the issue, is that for all the allegations he's stuck with silence and now as a result everyone is very clearly on the defensive. There's the already mentioned staff walking off over his rehiring. The show, which was a live, fans-call-in series before the interruption, is now coming back pretaped all season because nobody doesn't trust someone to make a scene, begging the question of why even do this. NBC, the much bigger company, only pulled him back when someone else stuck their neck out first on the winds of change. His friends continue to duck the question when asked what they knew or what they think, which, admittedly, they are not required to answer publicly, but it does color the thing when all of them stood by him as A Good Dude, Please Shut Up About It, Any Time Now. Nerdist writers have walked and left the company as well in the past week over his name hopping back on the site. There's just as much chance he's clean as dirty in this from outside perspectives, sure, but especially with the dude being married to a Hearst, a family who have a real history of gently caress-you spending to shut down bad press, nobody close to the matter really seems to be cheering this on in any way, shape, or form, and in fact, it almost seems like the opposite? It's really hard to believe an innocent dude sheds employees every single place he treads, even if he's just a complete prick to work with.

Crackbone posted:So at what point is somebody given benefit of the doubt? I mean in this case: Well, from my understanding she never actually named him and she said she wasn't out to try and ruin his career. So, if you consider the possibility that she may be telling the truth, that could explain why she didn't want to take part in AMC's investigation. It's a literal he-said-she-said situation. Nobody knows who's lying. Without any more evidence than the word of one person (who doesn't even want to cooperate), of course there's going to be no reason to fire him, nor should there be. It baffles me why anyone would resign in protest of him being fully reinstated, unless there's more going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. And really, if they're resigning because they hate Hardwick for some other reason, then they really need to state so rather than imply that they resigned because they believe the abuse story is true. And if they have personal reasons for believing that the abuse story is true, then they should go public with it. Otherwise their actions just seem completely unreasonable. END ME SCOOB posted:If this whole thing were slander on his character, why did he not sue? Because the burden of proof would be on him to show the court that her allegations are false, and such a thing is probably impossible. Defamation cases in the US are not a cakewalk. Failure to sue for defamation in a case like this should never be taken as evidence of guilt.

It's rly not that complicated, that article links this one where multiple people who've worked with Hardwick say his behavior is entirely consistent with the abuse post. So I mean, I don't know why they need some secret info or to announce a press release along w/ their decision. Like, quitting at this exact time is the obvious announcement that they believe her based on their experiences.

& yeah, you can say, "Well without further info on the specifics I don't think their experiences are enough 2 determine the credibility of the original post" which is like, totally fine. I just don't think there's any reason 2 search for a conspiracy or attempt to read between the lines of such a straightforward response

Hat Thoughts posted:It's rly not that complicated, that article links this one where multiple people who've worked with Hardwick say his behavior is entirely consistent with the abuse post. Ok, that makes sense. So basically, it seems like AMC decided that there was no evidence to justify firing him, but multiple co-workers who were familiar with him as a controlling rear end in a top hat at work were like "gently caress this, I'm out" when it was announced that he was coming back. Got it.

If this whole thing were slander on his character, why did he not sue? Trolling, hypocritical or just retarded? Placing the onus on a man, who was never actually named by the supposed victim, to sue for slander and keep the story more publicized is just hilarious. I'd love to see the mental gymnastics you'd put yourself through to somehow have this same belief while undoubtedly still supporting women for choosing not to go to the police for rape and just bringing it up 20+ years later in the press.

Martman posted:He's just saying that some of the same reasoning applies to an accused not immediately going for public litigation in response. I don't think the intent was what you're implying. I got his point but his initial tone was poo poo and then he fully lost me at the second paragraph. Yeah it makes sense if Hardwick didn't sue, whether he's guilty or innocent. It's a whole lot of red tape over an accusation he wasn't even explicitly named in, when I'd imagine he already has enough to deal with over it w/r/t keeping his career afloat. It still really isn't a 1:1 comparison though, not taking legal action and not going to the police. And kind of tasteless esp the way he worded it. Anyway, whether Hardwick did what Dykstra said or not I think we can all agree it's become clear he is p much definitely an rear end in a top hat to work with, which doesn't automatically make him a sexual abuser but certainly does lend credence to him maybe having the kind of temper that could easily make him in fact a sexual abuser.

I don't give a gently caress how I worded it when most of you are just spouting the silliest SJW horse poo poo imaginable. You had half a page to point out someone posting some of the dumbest logic imaginable and still tried to dismiss it until someone else risked your bee hive wrath to point out I was obviously not saying what you tried to straw man it into. But no, you locked yourselves into your little bunkers and defended the indefensible because "he's on our side must defend!". Queue 100 more pages of blind outrage.

Zogo posted:‘You know what you did’: Keith Ellison’s ex-girlfriend, Karen Monahan, speaks out With that said, it's an interesting case to look at in terms of how the media reports this stuff. A lot of the evidence to verify the claims seems cagey and reporters have been uneasy about reporting the claims in the past. I think most people--or at least lovely people--are under the belief that newspapers are just reporting anyone who claims sexual assault, but "believe the women" isn't really their guiding philosophy. There has been this rubric of verification (Material evidence, witnesses, confidants who were told of the abuse at the time) that I think is eventually going to rub against the broader emerging philosophy of "believe the women." Once again, I do believe the women. Ellison probably is abusive at least at some level. But he probably won't be punished for these claims.

Timeless Appeal posted:Considering this is the second accusation against Ellison, I have enough trust in the claims that Ellison is probably a shithead to women. I think it should be clear that there are two different situations that warrant two different responses. If a woman says she was raped, the default ought to be "believe the women" and sympathize, not act like a shithead and ask her to prove she was raped, etc. (I've seen people do this) But if a woman says that "X raped me" then that's an accusation against someone, and the default should be to carefully gather statements and material evidence and witnesses before coming to a decision on whether the accusation is substantiated enough that the accused ought to face consequences for it.
