Did you even bother to read the whole article?

Woah there buddy calm down. Did you not also see the part talking about other famous people who diddled the wrong diddly? They're plus-ungood for her, too.

No need to jump into her knickers like a raging fireant on steroids there.

I'm as placid as a mountain lake right now.

mountain lakes are pretty.

It was on a list of things that have sucked last year, I didn't see an article involved, though you are welcome to link it.

Are you defending him? I don't understand the hostility.

It may be that calling a whole show terrible and unwatchable because one person from it's crew did something rather terrible

I'm saying it ruined it for me. It's still a very good show, but as with my examples, it is tainted now.

Your reaction implies you didn't actually find out what was going on. The guy who was canned had his own show. Did you lose something from AT because one of the animators was sexually harassed and the network fired the guy who, apparently, is also having a schizophrenic breakdown?

Hence my confusion.

you seem overly hostile about this. I remember you saying something else hostile to me recently. You can shoot me a PM if we have something to hash out.

maybe I'm misinterpreting.

Honestly, given the level of creative control Page had, it's hard for me to see how it's analogous to the Allen, Cosby, or Polanski situations (people whose work I also avoid).

Honestly I am starting to think my willful ignorance of celebrity gossip has paid off in spades.

Honestly I think my absolute ignorance of just about every person behind television shows and music has paid off.

Tried watching celebrity name game and only knew half the cartoon characters that came up (and cartoon characters only make up like 1/4 of the names on that show)

If you have a problem supporting rapists, your ignorance means you might be doing that on accident. That's not a good thing.

If you don't then your ignorance doesn't matter.

I am one of those people who believes that works of art stand on their own legs independent of what the artist does or says, and that an artist independent of what they do deserves the fruits of their time and effort.

So if it turned out that the creator of Adventure time, for example, was a Neo Nazi... I'd have no problem with that.

I just don't want my experience of Adventure Time to be tainted by that knowledge, especially since as far as Adventure time is concerned it is completely unchanged.

If you have no problem with it, how does it taint your experience?

You just start to look for... things.
