Victim blaming.
Horrible take on the Danny Masterson trial. Extreme victim blaming. This was genuinely one of my favorite podcasts and I wrote an email about how disappointed I was with the way they discussed this trial- that they said they didn’t even keep up with…I received a very lengthy and rude response back. Just because some criticizes you, doesn’t mean they’re attacking you. I definitely won’t listen again and the doubling down on victim blaming is disappointing and frankly, disgusting.
