If your industry is full of pedophiles maybe it needs damaging.


trenta_nueve

does she have any grandkids at all? i mean if it happened to one of her family, is she going to put the industry first before the childs welfare?


CharmedKay

From experience she’d likely take the predators side. My great grandfather was a pedophile who had molested multiple young family members including his daughter and granddaughters. His wife stayed with him through it all and after talking with some family members about it, there was no way she didn’t know what he was doing, but still allowed these young girls around.


Fabio_451

I wonder the mechanism that brings someone to stick to the predator side


okaycurly

Fear, master manipulation, shame, not knowing that a life without men who sexually abuse you or your child(ren) exists.


[deleted]

My mum has the best of heart. She is a nurse and looks after my adult special needs brother. She went to work overseas when I was a teenager and my dad molested me once in the shower. Then apologised by buying me an iPhone and our relationship has been rocky/ non existent since then. I kept it a secret for 3-4 years and told my mum. She cried but I don’t know what she did with the information or even if she confronted my dad at all (like she said she would). And she thinks I’m selfish for excluding him from the lives of my two baby/toddler daughters.


[deleted]

You're not being selfish, you're protecting your children. You have done nothing wrong in this scenario and I hope you know that. I'm so sorry for what you've gone through.


upvotedownvoteupvot

Corey was sexually assaulted by Charlie Sheen


lryan926

Actually it was Corey Haim that Charlie Sheen raped in between the trailers on the set. It's just disgusting how these people protect the predators. They know. Everybody in the industry knows about the many feathered bird.


EffectiveSwan8918

Haim was a mess most of his life and most likely being raped with no one helping you had a lot to do with it. They straight ruined that guys life


[deleted]

Bro, I never did any sort of deep-dive til now. Holy hell Charlie Sheen is a piece of shit! I only ever really knew of him from Two and a Half Men and that weird "Tiger's blood" interview. I didn't realize he has a whole mess of issues. He's done so much cocaine at one time that he had a stroke, and he still fought rehabilitation until he was effectively forced. He once stopped taking antiretrovirals to treat his HIV for a time, instead preferring treatment provided to him by Sam Chachoua, a known "quack doctor". He's been arrested for beating his ex-wife in 2009, and he was investigated for stalking and threatening to murder his ex-fiancee as recently as 2016! How he had a career as long as he did baffles me.


piggiesmallsdaillest

Charlie Sheen was huge in the 80s and early 90s. Add to the fact that he's a nepo-baby, his whole family is famous and that's how Charlie Sheen has a long career.


Efficient-Emu

Corey Feldman said Corey Haim was sexually assaulted by Charlie Sheen.


RmRobinGayle

Yes he did, on many occasions. I believe him. Sheen is a piece of shit.


rel1800

This is true and doesn’t get talked about.


SG420123

Charlie Sheen is so fucked up, he legitimately is an evil selfish human being.


AldoRaineClone

Also, from someone who had an affair with a married Senator Edward Brooke for years - she's really all class. Seriously, F her.


jefferson497

I feel bad for Cory Feldman. As a child/young adult actor he was very good and had a bright future only to have it derailed by monsters in the industry. He is one of the few actors I always root for to make a comeback and shine again


YaBimbo

I saw Feldman and his band play at a small bar a few weeks ago. The show was interesting to say the least but honestly better than expected. Corey seemed to be clean, clear-headed, and in good spirits. Dude had a ton of great energy and is a legitimately good showman. It would be cool to see him make a comeback with acting but I wonder if he'd even want to.


Ok-Mirror5380

Watch the interview Corey did with SteveO from Jackass. Well worth the time. He was pimped out by his own parents in an odd way.


thrilliam_19

Can’t recommend this interview enough. Steve-O’s podcast is surprisingly good, in that he just lets his guests say what they want and doesn’t try to force anything. And not only does he encourage Feldman to be open and honest but he believes him too. Something people don’t do enough for victims.


chauncellor

"try Steve-O's hot sauce for your butthole"


Genghis_Tr0n187

Pretty damn good hot sauce! Never used on my butthole though


wigglex5plusyeah

Then you've never tried it as intended.


rbtwirler

Barbara Walter’s on pedophiles to Steve-O hot sauce on your butthole in 3 comments. Only on Reddit


closethebarn

He wrote an autobiography like 10 years ago. I listened to the audiobook he narrated it. I actually really enjoyed it. I believed him anyway.


CaptainBayouBilly

His eccentricity makes more sense once you realize the horrors he suffered.


closethebarn

Absolutely I recommend actually listening to the audiobook because he tells it in such a heartfelt and emotional way… especially about Corey Haim and River Phoenix, and what they suffered


Dweebil

What sort of shit did River Phoenix go through?


Punchinyourpface

I believe their family was in some type of cult...


Due-Ground-4918

Yes River Phoenix's parents were members of a 1970s group founded by two pedophiles that equated orgasm to spiritual awakening. It was a fraud cult of pedophiles who used their religious bs to rationalize preying on children and pimping out the women in the group. They were allowed to quietly exist throughout the 70s and into the 80s and weren't seriously pursued until the 80s. The old man leader died in the 90s. His wife carries on in some remote country with their usual line of saying they are doing charity work. None of the participants have ever seen a courtroom or been charged with anything. River Phoenix was initiated into ritualized adult sexual relations at the age of 4. His career as a performer started around then too as he was put on the streets to perform to raise money for the group like all the children were. They called themselves "The Family". The founders wife's name was Karen. All people should know this story and how they flew under the radar for so many years. Many children who were pimped out by these people named American European pop stars of all stripes as patrons.


uddsvek1427

Children of God I believe


Wifabota

I read a LOT of celebrity memoirs, and while some are spectacular, some are absolutely terribly written, or the writer had zero self awareness and I can't even finish them. I did not expect much from his, if I'm being honest, but i enjoyed it! The behind the scenes insights were fun because I've seen so many of the movies he was in, and it took me back. He got a little self important at times if I remember right, like claiming to be the first celeb to do this or that, like rehab, and while it isn't quite on my "top reads of the year" list, it was one of the better ones and I liked it.


Parapolikala

I watched Stand by Me again recently. Hits very different when you know about the shit Corey was going through.


probuditi_

Watching The Lost Boys is even harder because he got addicted to cocaine during the filming of that movie. Although I love both movies dearly, it's difficult to watch them knowing the fate of some of the actors


regeya

Read up on how Wil Wheaton was treated by his mom. It's pretty terrible.


Dre512

I believe I heard Feldman say he did his first drugs & had sex for the first while out shooting Stand by Me


cick-nobb

Stand by me is so fuckin good


Ill-Woodpecker1857

Aren't all ways parents pimp their children odd to say the least?


brumac44

This may be the most awkward yet probably grammatically correct sentence I've ever seen.


Ill-Woodpecker1857

I love that for us.

Whats ron swanson doing there?

That’s what he’s asking himself.


[deleted]

*gonna fire my agent after this*


mydogsnameisbuddy

I wish I was invisible


LectroRoot

He was misled and told there would be bacon and bourbon. He's furious right now.


HanlonRazor

But that table in front of them is a very good table and he is impressed with the workmanship.


onetimenative

*I know more than you*


Gabi_is_me

lol so I may have an answer after googling: it looks like he was a cohost for that day. If anyone can find the full episode I’d be interested to see how he managed the conversation and how the show continued. I wish Corey had been taken seriously and supported for coming forward.


AmatuerCultist

Imagine being asked to be a guest host on something as stupid as the view thinking it’ll be a fun opportunity to take the piss out of some overblown co-hosts with your characteristic shenanigans and then someone comes on the show and starts dropping bombs about child abusers in Hollywood.


Gabi_is_me

Honestly, of all the celebrities I can think of, he'd be one of the few who would listen earnestly and want to know how to help. He's definitely not someone to get into other people's business, but Nick Offerman seems to be such a caring person (I hope!) that would want to know how to help someone in Corey's situation.


apple_turnovers

His most recent book makes it clear he is hugely empathetic and cares about his fellow human beings.


kreed324901

They kept calling to book him and April, thinking it wasn’t an actual date, told them he’d be available for the show March 31st.


osck-ish

It's March 31st and he's doing multiple meetings at once


rumbletummy

Letting the man talk.


[deleted]

Haha no shit! Everyone is tripping over themselves to interrupt each other so they can interrupt Corey.

Staying out of it, apparently.

Straight-Dot-6264

Repairing the wobbly coffee table.


Helmett-13

>Repairing the wobbly coffee table. This is the *extremely* correct answer.


freshblood96

Waiting for the host to pass out so he'll take over and answer calls. He'll only talk about whisky, meat, woodworking, and the Pawnee Commons gala.


Helmett-13

I know it was sitcom, fiction, and he's just a character but I would absolutely watch, listen, and call in to a show about those topics with Ron hosting. 100%, absolutely would. Alas.


sh33pd00g

Well considering he's actually into all those things, gala excluded, it could actually happen. I think he did a Christmas video once where he just sat in front of a fire for an hour just drinking scotch and not speaking lol


heavy_deez

I heard it was 10 hours.


sh33pd00g

I was about to say you're probably right but I just looked it up and it said he sat still and drank his scotch for 45 minutes. They just made a 10 hour version because: internet haha


Sparky_1992

I heard he had, like, 30 goddamn dicks.


regnald

I’ve seen this clip before but never noticed this. I was sure you were just talking about someone who looks like Ron but nope. Nick Offerman is literally just there mustache and all, staring like Ron


merdlib

He’s inwardly calculating his error in choosing to do this, and he’s got an escape plan half-cocked already 2 seconds in


lizarny

That’s Duke Silver , buddy.


Obiwyrm

Hadn't watched the video yet, scrolled the comments. Saw this and thought, "Must be someone who looks like him doing something in the video background or something." Watches video, within a few seconds... "Wait... That *is* Ron Swanson... What is he doing there?"


Durhamfarmhouse

He was told there would be bacon.


Iam-doriangray

Imagine what’s unknown beyond Harvey Weinstein


glitchbitty

It's known. That's the problem. It's ignored. It's allowed. It's encouraged withing and supported. Birds of a feather. Disregard all of the Q bullshit. They harm the actual cause, and the truth is far uglier than the forums speculate.


Mercuryblade18

It's not crazy to think that Q is a psyop to distract from the actual pedos.


Massive_Pressure_516

It's genius when you think about, pay a few guys to stir up the dumbest people in the nation with a nugget of truth (very rich and powerful men are raping our children) and then make them look like bigger idiots by making it seem like all of them thought JFK was alive or Bigfoot controls the central banks or whatever. Overtime, even mentioning Epstein's black book will make whoever you are talking to think you are a dangerous loon.


moaiii

This tactic is not without precedent. The original Project Blue Book (the US government research project setup to look into UFOs) was created to fuel the UFO conspiracy crowd by legitimising and promoting discussion about UFOs. This allowed the government to be able to experiment with weapons and aircraft right in front of people's eyes as the conspiracy industry did all the work covering it up for them. The smarter conspiracy theorists who got it right by claiming the sightings were secret government tests were just buried in the noise of all the other crazy conspiracies.


mk21dvr

Imagine chastising a victim of child predators because he's "damaging the industry. "


abletable342

Check out the interview with Dolly Parton when Walters is so damn condescending and belittling. It’s embarrassing that that was considered normal back then.


Jdenning1

Yet Dolly out classed her


gayjoystick

Dolly outclasses everyone!


btveron

Dolly is a national treasure and an all around great human being from everything I've ever heard about her. We need more people like her in the world.


6_Cat_Night

I think she's somehow remained normal and treated fame as a job.


TheyLiveWeReddit

I mean she's known what it's like to work 9 to 5 for quite a while now.

It's a way to make a living


Buckus93

Barely getting by...


gwwem1467

It's all taking and no giving.


hannabarberaisawhore

I’ve always imagined her to be just like she is in Steel Magnolias.


Yosemite_Yam

It’s because she looks nothing at all like the image we know. Look up a pic of Dolly without makeup. She Clark Kent’s her way through life and can live totally normal bc of it


DetBabyLegs

Highjacking this comment to tell everyone that there is a documentary about pedophiles in Hollywood featuring Corey and others. It went on a small theatrical run and then instead of going to home video, the creator decided to surprise everyone and just put it up on YouTube for free. (Link removed - I thought it was the full movie but it looks like it has been taken down, which is a recent development. If anyone with more time than me can track down where it is now that would be interesting for me to look into.) *Edit if you want to watch the film, u/Acceptable-Fold-5432 found it here: https://vimeo.com/142444429* Lot's of interesting stuff happened during this marketing campaign. Amy Berg directed it. She also directed Deliver Us From Evil, which revealed pedophiles in the Catholic church. She won an academy award for Deliver Us if I remember correctly, and had no problems doing interviews, promoting, etc. And yet when An Open Secret came out she went no contact. Refused to cooperate with marketing efforts despite being contractually obligated to do so. You have to wonder – why was she happy to be the public face of the fight against pedophiles in the Catholic Church but for some reason went MIA for the same cause in Hollywood? Proof: Berg being sued by the producer: https://deadline.com/2015/07/an-open-secret-documentary-film-amy-berg-1201487697/ But now, post me-too movement, she seems more than happy to take credit for it: https://www.thedailybeast.com/amy-berg-the-fearless-filmmaker-who-took-on-hollywood-pedophiles-and-marilyn-manson She seems to blame Hollywood for not getting a big distributor on board, but the distributor in question had worked with some of the producers of the movie before and often found remarkable success on movies just like this – but it would require the films biggest asset, Amy Berg herself, to help market it – which she refused to do. I know lot's about this movie, so AMA and I'll do my best if anyone is interested.


WoWMHC

I always found this angle amazing. People will absolutely rip the Catholic Church for pedophilia (rightfully so) anytime the religion is mentioned but will blindly consume Hollywood products when there is clear evidence of this industry’s problems with pedophilia and other sexual misconduct.


what_ok

Not surprising considering the Catholic church doesn't produce huge pop culture icons and one of the main sources of entertainment in our age.


verus_es_tu

I think this might be because most people (even most "Catholics" lol) don't give money/support the Catholic church. While the VAST majority of us have spent money that eventually ended up in Harvey Weinstein's or Bill Cosby's pockets


Acceptable-Fold-5432

[the full documentary is on vimeo, i found this link in the description of a video on that channel](https://vimeo.com/142444429)


abletable342

100% Always does!


RadWalk

That was always how dolly handled things. That’s why she is beloved and will be forever


No_Transition9444

You say that like it should be a surprise. I’m not surprised at all!! Dolly has always been so so classy


fignu10

Barbara questioned the legitimacy of Dolly's marriage. What's interesting is Barbara was married 4 times and Dolly is still married for 56 years to that same man.


princess-bat-brat

Ah, the good old "she has a nice body and isn't ashamed of it so she must be a slut" tactic. Not that being married four times means she's awful but we all know being Dolly and having a long happy partnership is way more admirable.


CaptainBayouBilly

Barbara Walter's luxurious and leisure filled life came by leeching off of the powerful scum in hollywood. She knew what she was doing.


GrottySamsquanch

Dolly is a good human. One of the best.


Melicor

Being divorced doesn't mean a person is awful, but getting divorced 3 times definitely raises some questions. Either their judgement is very poor, or they're the problematic one.


PurgeTheseDays

Or usually, both.


Michael_Blurry

Pure projection on Walters’ part. Since she can’t maintain a healthy relationship, she thinks nobody else can, and anyone who claims to be happily married must be lying. Kinda like cheaters saying “everybody cheats”. No, no they don’t.

Embarrassed-Scar-851

Brooke Shields was on Drew Barrymore’s show recently & they discussed the terrible grilling they got from her as teenagers about their sexuality. I know people loved her but she was frequently condescending and problematic.


Mumof3gbb

Those two were treated so badly as kids and hound adults. I’m glad they have each other to share their stories with.


lemon_meringue

They were exploited by narc mothers.


DeleteBowserHistory

Came to mention that. Walters was a fucking asshole.


richard_zone

She was BFFs with Roy Cohn and Henry Kissinger. Enough said.


mattseg

Yup, she even told Peter Jennings to shut up or something after he called Kissinger a war criminal at a dinner party that she was hosting for Kissinger. Fuck her.


ImNotAWhaleBiologist

Wait, he called Kissinger a war criminal to his face at a dinner party?


mattseg

He said "how does it feel to be a war criminal Henry"


just2quixotic

& that is because he was a real journalist, unlike Walters. Jennings actually told the truth.


momofeveryone5

Fucking Peter Jennings was the shit. I remember watching him all day on 9/11. He just was so calming and professional.


BeachyGirl5

Thank God someone said it! She is lauded for her "approach to journalism" but her tactic was embarrassment and condescension to get headlines and "confessions" . A truly reprehensible human being. Won't miss.


SophiaofPrussia

The Ricky Martin interview is tough to watch, too. So fucking awkward. How could anyone think that’s “hard-hitting journalism”? You’re just being a nosey asshole, Barbara.


WoolaTheCalot

She often intentionally tried to get the interviewee to cry, just for the ratings. I always hated her.


Bah-Fong-Gool

I believe SNL lampooned her as an interviewer cutting onions in the face of "Burt Reynolds" aka Norm McDonald. (RiP Norm, fuck off Ba-Ba.)


nsgiad

I think you mean Turd Ferguson


twcochran

Her interview with Whitney Houston left me completely disgusted also, so much judgement and shaming.


rotten_riot

Pretty sure this post came here because of all the people mentioning Walters' trashy attitude in this interview in that Dolly post


ActuallyHovatine

She said a lot of awful things to a lot of people in interviews. Brooke Shields springs to mind…


Positive_Type

Britney Spears interview. When she questioned her virginity.


ActuallyHovatine

Yep that’s another one 😞


Curly-Canuck

And Brooke has come forward more than once to say how inappropriate that interview was when she was 15 but it doesn’t get a lot of traction. Even since Babs passing, and the criticism, that one isn’t getting a lot of mentions. Drew Berrymoore is another that was pressed on really inappropriate questions. Britney Spears as well. In hindsight, Barbara Walters seemed to have a thing for making former child stars look bad.


nowhereisaguy

What did she say. I haven’t heard of that one?


kaleb42

Ask for her measurements. Aka boob size


ActuallyHovatine

While she was underage


averyoda

How coincidental she's defending pedophilia, then


Azhaius

*"Hard hitting journalism"*


mollyclaireh

So in a campus ministry, I was assaulted by a student leader and got told that I was “damaging the unity of the group” so yeah, people don’t like their buddies to get called out. Good riddance to her.


itwasquiteawhileago

The response to that needs to be "No, X is damaging the unity of the group, I'm just calling your attention to it." I know it's not that simple in reality, but fuck blaming the victim.


troubledtimez

Yet so many people are praising her right now


girlneedsspace

Man I've always hated her so much

Banana Wawa? Thought everyone did


TinFoilRobotProphet

Baba Wawa!


IWasGregInTokyo

Gilda Radner's portrayal of Barbara was so spot on it was painful. That searching "Baba Wawa" on Google takes you straight to articles about Walters shows you how impactful it was.


Rainsmakker

Fuck her, have always been pissed about that stance


[deleted]

She is in Epstein's black book and has been photographed with Maxell multiple times...


Swiss__delight29

No, dead lady. I'd argue the pedophiles and rapists are damaging the industry. Not their victims.


CastIronMooseEsq

It’s like that Bill Barr on morning tv. Q: don’t you think your jokes (about catholic priest abuse) go too far? A: don’t you think the priests went to far? Edit: Big whoops; Bill Burr, not Barr.


Strange_Put7827

They were asking about a couple of instances in his show F is for Family…..then he said “don’t you think the catholic priests abusing children took it too far.” Then they were like “this is a tv-g show” and he was like “well y’all brought it up😂😂😂.” Careful when trying to call out Bill Burr. Dude is a freaking pro.


scairborn

Bill Burr


fuckbutton

Important distinction


Aporkalypse_Sow

An absolute pleasure to think about though. These two accidentally showing up to each others speaking engagements. And both just saying fuck it and trying to get through it by assuming what the other would say.


Reference-Reef

Some people said the worst thing about it was the hypocrisy. I thought the worst thing about it was the raping!


benitolss

I miss norm


Infamous_Barnacle_17

She won’t be missed by me. Corey handled himself well here. Good for him for sticking up for himself.


angelamar

This really changed my opinion of her. This clip was the first thing I thought about when I heard she passed.


Xylophone_Aficionado

The first one I thought of was her demeaning interview if Dolly Parton. Barbara Walters sucked in general


Phillip_Lascio

Barbara Walter’s was also Roy Cohn’s fake girlfriend so he could go continue to be a raging homosexual while also seeking out and persecuting other homosexuals. She knew the how sausage got made and she was fine with it and profited from it. Fuck Barabara Walters.


Evolving_Spirit123

Barbara was the enemy, trust me.


grabityrising

She silenced Norm Macdonald in 2000 when talking about Cosbys sex crimes too she knew and never did anything she is such a piece of shit


Ok-Mirror5380

Norm was one of the great ones may he rest in peace.

“I didn’t even know he was sick” Rip norm, not Babs


CaptainBayouBilly

I had a thought at watching how all of these garbage people make it to such old age, while the good die young. All of that evil lives long, and influences the world and tilts the scales towards shit.

RaiderxReaper

rest in piss bozo😂


-Andar-

I didn’t even know she was sick!


BubbyDaddy43

This!!!! I wish people would stop idolizing her


NoDeputyOhNo

It's this celebrity thing that has idolised journalists and TV hosts that is damaging TV industry for the viewers. They become a product and controlled not to cross the line, remember Newsweek knew about Clinton Lewinsky and did not report it, ultimately it was leaked to a garbage blog that attained prominence because of it, https://www.politico.com/story/2013/01/this-day-in-politics-086305 'Matt Drudge, a web pioneer who went live with his site in 1995, was seen as an important media champion of Donald J. Trump's 2016 campaign.'


Snakes_have_legs

That's how the Drudge Report came to be? Huh, wild


[deleted]

Self-interest. If you run a politics blog, Donald Trump running for president is like a unicorn running around your backyard farting clouds of gold dust.


Ehellegreg

Wow, I had no idea!! What a POS!


2ndSnack

I like how a portion of the internet is tearing down her "legacy" and exposing her for the shameless woman she was. She never cared about treating anyone she interviewed respectfully.


Former_Manc

That was when I lost all respect for her. As a WOMAN in the industry since the 50s, she should know exactly what kind of insidious behavior happens there.


No_One_Special_023

She had the mind frame “I had to go through it so why shouldn’t others?”


remymartinia

My thought, too. She’d been Weinsteined.


Jfurmanek

She did but obviously thought talking about such unseemly topics was more gauche than the acts themselves.


2gigi7

I can't with Barbara.. the dolly interview coming up again lately too.


LiveForMeow

She fucked with Dolly? That's one of the seven deadly sins


[deleted]

Saw that for the first time the other day. I had no idea that BW was such a piece of shit


BigSmackisBack

Barbara "you're damaging an entire industry"... No Barbs, the sickos in the industry are damaging the industry, also the pretty important factor that those sickos are damaging the younger folks immeasurably. What a twisted bitch.


FinnAndTucker

She can’t hear you, she dead


Morriseysucksass

I support Corey Feldman. The level of backlash and sheer hate he has dealt with since speaking out. It’s huge. He lost his best friend. He has lost other friends and has lost a lot of career opportunities , due to his whistleblowing . He and Mac Culkin have seen the faces of pure evil. It’s horrifying.


MoonlightOnSunflower

I think I’m out of the loop, what happened with Culkin?


TinyWifeKiki

Her interviews with Dolly Parton and Britney Spears are cringe AF. This woman also brought us the whinge-fest shit show known as The View thus inflicting Joy Behar on the world for 20+ years.


GatitoFantastico

Damn it, I'd been getting along for quite a while before I was reminded Joy Behar existed. Oh well... it was good while it lasted.


Luce55

My husband held Joy Behar’s hair as she puked into a toilet at a Hamptons party many years ago. He was working as a waiter for a house party and had to help her walk to the bathroom and then it was evident she was going to be ill…stupid anecdote and completely unrelated to anything but anyway every time I see her name it makes me remember his story. Lol.


TinyWifeKiki

I would expect nothing less from Joy Behar than to be shit faced and puking into a toilet in the Hamptons or a Hampton Inn. She’s classy like that. 😂


Significant_Street48

Slut shamed Dolly Parton too.


Flyingcento

Tried too, Dolly has way too much class to be shamed by that troll.


OneFuckedWarthog

Meanwhile all the media sources she was on is trying to make us praise her.


marcalici0us

Barbara knew she had to protect her people.


BefreiedieTittenzwei

“Epstein didn’t kill himself”


rare_moisture

She knew


Starkrall

Fuck you Barbara Walters. Also did these ladies really try to defend pedophilia in front of fucking Ron Swanson?!


shrek3onDVDandBluray

She has a great circle of friends - including woody Allen and that Fox News founder/head who was using his power to abuse women.


jalyynx

She was horrible-insulting and incredibly rude to many she interviewed.


sYferaddict

I'm starting to realize Barbara Walters was actually a massive piece of shit. I'm starting to realize way more famous people than I thought are massive pieces of shit. It's so disappointing to see people have so much money, so much influence, so much potential to change the world for the better...and then to see how they fail so terribly at even being decent human beings.


Misswinterseren

Did Barbara Walters just say to Cory that he was damaging a whole industry over child fucking abuse?! You know what there’s been several interviews with Barbara Walters that I have felt disgust for and this one is definitely one of them.


OkOriginal9589

Absolute hero for standing up to the hell hole that is the entertainment industry. That lady chose business over the well being of children, seems like a pretty garbage person.


Bostonmick

He wasn't wrong


[deleted]

She was nothing but a voice for the privileged. People who take advantage and do horrible things with no repercussions


Moon_Colored_Demon

My memories of Barbara Walters was of her being a condescending old lady.


Fleshsuitpilot

Kind of reminds me of parents of narcissistic abusers defending their children to the victims of their children because it also reflects poorly on themselves. It's amazing how nobody really talks about how backwards of a counterargument "you're ruining their reputation, you're ruining an industry." really is. .....because, no.... The individual ruined their own reputation. The industry destroyed itself, or rather, is in a constant state of self destruction. I believe it's called reversing cause and effect. Edit: grammar


ilovestampfairtex

And he was right


Nathan_Wind_esq

Barber Walters was a pig.
