Some heads need to roll (literally) in Hollywood:

http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2011/12/05/recent-charges-sexual-abuse-children-in-hollywood-just-tip-iceberg-experts-say/

I've heard a lot of stories like this surrounding Hollywood and the Music Industry.

1 It's Fox who have been filling the airwaves with their bilge about communist Sesame Street, and socialist muppets.

2 Innocent until proven guilty.

3 The paedo brush is a cheap weapon in any argument.

You have actual abuse victims who have spoken out and actual arrests -- what more do you want?

Arests not prosecutions.

The UK police have accused people of being paedos for having photos of their own kids.

Show me a prosecution and I'll buy the story.

nb should clarify I mean innocent photos of their kids on holiday.

Sooty, don't be a numpty.

No on this if nothing else I'm being deadly serious.

I read the story, and it was also accusation.

It's "innocent until PROVEN guilty"

So you think it's likely that there has been no paedophilia in the history of Hollywood?

Any industry that involves kids has had some history of paedophilia.

And any industry that involves connections and physical attractiveness will have some degree of sexual exploitation.

Frankly ban any pop group under 30, burn down Stagecoach schools and incinerate Justin Bieber for his own good.

Well that's all right then! I thought you'd taken complete leave of your senses.

The paranoia over child abuse has made it an extremely dangerous accusation for those weak of mind and argument.

By which I mean Fox News.

The worst new organisation since Goebells early morning light entertainment radio show.

Didn't know Fox news had anything to do with it. I've been reading the accusations (especially from Feldman) for up to maybe 10 years.

Would you prefer the far-left-leaning Huffington Post and ABC?

Or how about Reuters?

"This is news, which means it doesn't happen all the time," said an agent for a talent agency that specializes in child actors.

Interesting take on the definition of news . . .

The best thing about articles is you can read them and learn stuff from them.

So

Fox; unhappy actor talks about abuse on TV show, here's a spurious collection of other alleged abuses. Mainly by left leaning director.

Huffington Post; unhappy actor talks about abuse on TV show, blames unnamed mogul for premature death of friend and in ongoing conflict with friends family.

It's a note worthy story worth covering. Only one covers it, the other exploits it.

To be honest I get a slight vicarious joy from the blight of poor teachers and scout masters. Being visited upon the wealthy and powerful.

e.g. unsubstantiated claims of abuse.

Funny how much less it bothered him when he was making films.
