supermik Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) Must be a quiet time in media land. Imagine dedicating a 90 minute programme and full page spreads on some twat that has not been relevant for years. If laws have been broken then put him in front of a judge, if not then who really cares? if things as really as bad as the press are saying then why did they not go to the police straight away with their “evidence”? They could be as bad as the others that they are trying to say did nothing. Edited September 16, 2023 by supermik -20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I remember him and Pointless being generally liked when it first started. Is Alexander Armstrong not liked either? Alexander is almost as nice though not as funny as Michael Palin. Richard Osman is a boring accountant who struck lucky on Pointless but is embarrassingly unfunny on QI, or anywhere else. And the only reason anyone buys his books is because of Pointless, they're fucking awful and were probably written by GPT-4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) There are quite a few on this that aren't Russell Brand that are coming out of this very badly also. That guy that heard the woman screaming and did nothing about it, before going to meet Russell Brand for some meeting being a prime example. What the f**k?

Obviously people can freeze in the moment etc but I like to think most people would intervene in such situations. Baffling that the guy has stood out there and done f**k all then had the nerve to say to her that’s what he done 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess that's a more common reaction that you'd like to think. When confronted with a situation where they're liable to not only lose their job, but to be blacklisted from the industry for being "difficult", plenty of people would wind their neck in and do nothing. You only have to look at how many people enabled Weinstein to assault young women despite absolutely knowing what was going on. Edit: 4 minutes ago, Have some faith in Magic said: Okay Andrew. I had my bets on @WATTOO to be the first, but you can't win 'em all. Edited September 16, 2023 by BTFD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we all think we would have done the right thing but who knows unless he's tried to groom you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) I assume that The Times and The Sunday Times will have more to publish on this. He really is a fucking vile individual whose sex abuse has been enabled throughout his career by TV companies.

Of course we all think we would have done the right thing but who knows unless he's tried to groom you? I’m not sure how I’d feel as a woman if a guy said to me that he’d heard my screams and he’d decided to do nothing about. Would you feel worse if you knew there was someone that could’ve done something about it but didn’t? Would it make the initial trauma worse? I think you’re totally right though, I’ve never been in that situation and hopefully never will be. But who knows how you’d react til you’re placed in that situation.

Think if you’re in a group it would definitely be easier to speak up but it shows how much power/influence Brand had that a full group of people (if there was a group) didn’t want to do anything 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"This is what they do "? Yes, you fucking entitled deviant nonentity. Good journalists tell the truth, have a basic grasp of morality and accountability. Moreover, they don't f**k young men then leave them to drown. c**t. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
