Yeah, I do have trouble sometimes when it comes to those accused of sexual crimes… Cosby is especially difficult because he portrayed himself as a role model to such a degree. Can’t really do Allen, either, but he was never my type of filmmaker. They both just come off as hideous hypocrites and gross in their products now. I can’t even bring myself to call their doings art anymore, really. But they made themselves the center of the work in many cases, so it is more difficult to ignore than what some rock bands have gotten up to. I know Page and Plant did some fucked up things, and thus I dislike them, but I can’t not listen to the music they created. It’s too fundamental to me.
