Look how they blame Sarah Palin and Fox News.

The Palin and Fox derangement syndrome is so advanced the writer could not help but get in a dig about SP and Fox, even when it had no relevance to the subject whatsoever. That is just sick. And ridiculous.

Funny and so true!

[minnesota_bound]

Yeah I noticed it from the photos at the article..... h does have a “type”.

She still wears a tie.

Certainly not making light of child molestation in any way (if it did happen), but I can't help taking glee in and having a "let's sit back and enjoy" attitude as I watch a bunch of lefty idiots pointing fingers at each other while each uses his/her douchebag lefty friends in the press to take cheap shots at each other...

Ah, Schadenfreude, or life is a batch... I share your amusement. What a dork. Never did like him, don't know if he did it, but wouldn't be surprised.

No military coup; it was a play-by-play of Woody's character and his wife consummating their marriage.

...”Who knows what happened or didn’t happen that long ago”...

I will tell you who knows..It is the grown-up victim of a pedophile. I am one of those victims. My persecutor was not a family member, thank God, but was a celebrity greatly admired by a family member. I told my Mother and she was my rescuer, though in those days, we only told close relatives what had happened. I was 9 years old. My victimizer dropped dead in his early 50s, not long after he molested me. God’s judgment? I hope so. I believe every word of Dylan’s account and this article from Vanity Fair proves that Allen and his creepy legal support got him off because of his money and his celebrity. Hollywood and it’s drug-sotted, sex-sotted, narcissistic-sotted, hedonistic world makes me sick! They care nothing for anyone but themselves and their self-absorbed little world soon comes to an end but the damage they do lingers for God only knows how long.
Go here and read what Allen’s milliion dollar team was able to accomplish in the face of what appears to be overwhelming evidence of what he did to Dylan. http://www.vanityfair.com/online/daily/2014/02/woody-allen-sex-abuse-10-facts

Go back and read it again. I don’t see this as necessarily a dig at Palin or Fox.

He is citing them as examples of people who criticize Hollywood for its moral failings.

It’s not like he can use any of the MSM as examples of such criticism, since they don’t make any. In fact, their only involvement in such criticism is normally to defend the entertainment industry against such criticism.

The only criticism by the MSM of anything produced by the entertainment industry in recent years is when it violates liberal shibboleths, such as smoking.

kinda like when he married his daughter Soon Yi...

I will tell you who knows..It is the grown-up victim of a pedophile.

I've read quite a bit and actually remember when it was all going on. I read it then too. Since I don't have a crystal ball and was not there to see anything happen then there is no possible way that I could know.

I can't stand Woody Allen, his movies or his immature attitude. I could not stand him before all of this broke into the media.

I am greatly and truly sorry for your situation and I do believe you. The accusations against Allen were timed in a manner that I find to be suspicious. This could have happened but I do not "KNOW" that it did.

[ConjunctionJunction]

Yes, exactly.

[informavoracious]

Why bring up Palin and Fox at all? It’s a stretch.

[wardaddy]

Midnight in Paris was whimsical and OK

But I’m done with his sick pup ass

I prefer Jewish funny guys like Mel brooks

Or rickles .....the old guard. ....henny. ....Benny......berle

For movies....Jewish guys

Cohen brothers...no one else comes close today....they can do any of it from arty to comedy to satire to serious to even an excellent western or mob flick

And they don’t preach

God bless them
