The worst would be when they hacked into a missing girls phone, deleted some messages to make room in case anybody left a message with something juicy and then didn't say anything when the girls parents saw that someone was checking her phone and believed it was proof she was still alive. That was the Rupsrt Murdoch/Pierce Morgan shitshow.

Morgan is also one of the lead tabloid shitbirds targeting Meghan Markle. He claims , off the record to anyone that will listen, she was turning tricks and he was a frequent customer until he bought her services for a weekend for Prince Harry in exchange for an interview and she decided to trade up.

The tabloid/press poo poo for Megan Markle was just disgusting. First you had notable op-eds trying to be subtle about their angry racism and some person outright saying she was acceptable as a mistress but not a wife. Then there was an aggressive campaign to just tear her down at every opportunity and the blatant hypocrisy in treatment between her and Kate was on full display with pictures of them in near identical situations and Kate was a radiant noble goddess and Megan was a scheming deceitful actress(i.e whore).

Megan Markle is basically a bigger villain to the press than disgraced pedo Prince Andrew.

Between what they did to his mom and what they were doing to his wife it's absolutely no surprise Harry noped the gently caress out of being a royal.

And gently caress British tabloids for being so horrible that I actually sympathize with Prince Harry.

No idea, but he's number five right now so barring a truly horrific accident he won't ever be king if he didn't.

Has anyone seen Alex Winter’s HBO doc Showbiz Kids? Evan Rachel Wood talks about being at the golden globes and watching a pedophile get up and accept an award, and she walks out because of it, but doesn’t say who it was. Any clues as to who this might be? Someone in the Bryan Singer circle? It was in the context of her knowledge of male child actors being abused. I understand why she doesn’t name who it is but part of me wishes she did and HBO had the balls to air it.

I think my mass effect is broken
She used a male pronoun, so that narrows it down... a little.

The sheer number of individuals that would take home an award is just absolutely vast, and even if it were to get narrowed down to the last, say, 10 years, there's still countless producers. The only names that jump out are Kevin Spacey, who won in 2014 for House of Cards (and was one of the first big name exposures, IIRC), and Woody Allen a few years prior (although apparently Woods specifically said the guy liked to touch boys? As far as I know, Woody Allen preys on girls, right?).

There's the Bohemian Rhapsody Best Film (Drama) win a couple of years ago, but did the directors get an award for that too, or did it go to the producers?

In all probability something big is about to drop about the Washington Redskins regarding office sex scandals

https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/21326965/washington-nfl-team-reported-bombshell-story

Rumors are pretty wild right now on Twitter, but generally sounds like office culture of sexual assault and accompanying coverups.

https://twitter.com/RadioHarrison/status/1283609989169512449

There's also a really gross story from 2013, reported in 2018, involving cheerleaders being used as escorts and doing nude photo shoots that probably indicates the tip of the iceberg.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/02/sports/redskins-cheerleaders-nfl.html

For those unfamiliar with the Washington Redskins, they are the worst-managed, most scandal-ridden team in the NFL, which takes some doing. Players typically leave the team as soon as they are able.

If they're dumb enough to stubbornly keep that name even when, iirc, they lost the trademark on it, somehow it's less surprising.

Legally, no, he's still the Duke of Sussex and he didn't abdicate his title. He and Markle just wanted nothing to do with monarchy bullshit anymore (because of the aforementioned racism).

I feel like musicians have been loving underage girls as long as music has existed, and definitely as long as modern rock music has existed. the first caveman to develop a sense of rhythm probably did so because he wanted to impress his buddy's cave-daughter to develop a sense of trust and eventually exploit that trust to have sex.

The guy who married his 13 year old cousin and destroyed his career in the 1950s comes to mind.

Yes.

Also for example there remains semi-apocryphal stories of horrible poo poo band members have done to groupies that will probably never come to light. I recall David Bowie had the advantage of dying before any of this was widely shared.
