It's all big bad journalist's fault he raped those women!

When your supporters are McGowan, Hannity, Piers Morgan, and a whole host of right-wingers, you're fucked.

How would Rose know the truth about these allegations? Don't we need the due diligence to come out? Plus, I thought she was all me-too'd... what happened?

Rose is a fucking hypocrite. Russell is a dirty cunt in more ways than one.

She doesn't even know the outlets actually breaking the story (Channel 4, The Times and the Sunday Times, she says the Guardian). And since when weren't journalists allowed to use anonymous sources? Tell Woodward and Bernstein about that one.

Piers Morgan didn't defend Brand, r1. He just said he's entitled to due process, which I presume even you would agree with.

by Anonymousreply 7September 19, 2023 6:36 PM

What about when the papers that broke the story of your rapes are owned by Rupert Murdoch, r1?

She's always been an obvious attention seeker, but this just makes it more obvious. She can't just say she supports the women, because that's what would be expected and hence wouldn't get headlines.

What stories of rapes are you referring to, R8?

by Anonymousreply 10September 19, 2023 6:42 PM

"Even" me, R7? What does that mean?

by Anonymousreply 11September 19, 2023 6:42 PM

She is trash. She will announce herself as MAGA soon enough. Remember how she was so angry that nobody believed the (clearly bogus) Tara Reade allegations? And now she's defending someone who's been exposed as a rapist? Maybe her brain has melted because nobody wants to cast her in anything. It's not like she has acting talent.

The stories of rapes by Russell Brand, r10. Haven't you heard about them?

Presumably you believe in due process, r11? If so, then you have the same position as Piers Morgan.

She isn't respected. Nothing she says matters, she's too unhinged. I can't stand her.

by Anonymousreply 14September 19, 2023 6:46 PM

R13, I wouldn't say I have the same positions as Morgan. If you're asking me if I believe someone has the right to a fair trial and is innocent until proven guilty, yes. If you're asking me if I think Brand is innocent, no, I don't. Anything else?

That was rambling, verbose and half-baked. It's not even that clear what her point is except for the usual vague allusions to sinister agendas. The 'why now?' accusations are pointless. Who can predict when enough is enough. 'Why ever?' for that matter. Sometimes predators and psychopaths operate their entire lives within a system that rewards success and celebrity.

Why does anybody care? I don’t know why anyone thinks she’s an authority on anything. She’s just some dumb, washed up actress.

by Anonymousreply 17September 19, 2023 6:52 PM

Yeah, this is the behavior of an innocent guy. Not to mention that radio recording Brand made to notorious pedo Jimmy Saville offering Saville Brand's personal assistant--naked--to do with whatevwer Saville wanted.

Both Russell and Rose have that same maniacal look in their eyes. Black soulless eyes.

by Anonymousreply 20September 19, 2023 7:08 PM

To joke--especially to Savile, of whom it was an open secret that he was a gross pedo--of "demanding" that your assistant present herself naked to him at your command says everything you need to know about Brand.

But let it all come out in court, as it will.

And yes, Brand has crazy eyes.

by Anonymousreply 21September 19, 2023 7:09 PM

No, r15, I wasn't asking you if you think Brand is innocent and Piers Morgan didn't claim that he is either.

by Anonymousreply 22September 19, 2023 7:32 PM

Well, R22, I'm telling you I don't think Brand is, and Morgan's opinion or lack of opinion is irrelevant in all this at any rate.

by Anonymousreply 23September 19, 2023 7:38 PM

Funny how right-wingers only think "innocent until proven guilty" applies to people they like and not, say, Hunter Biden.

Didn't see anyone rushing to defend Jerry Sandusky before his trial, either....

by Anonymousreply 24September 19, 2023 7:41 PM

Yes, r23, Morgan's opinion is irrelevant. R1 first mentioned it.

by Anonymousreply 25September 19, 2023 7:46 PM

And so, too, is McGowan irrelevant.

R26 How dare you - she is doing autograph conventions around the country.

Of course she is, R27--what else does she have to do? She has to make coin somehow.

Fucking phony.
