So the CW of the usual cohort of maniacs is that "Russell Brand was speaking truth to power so they have to tear him down." Now I'm scratching my head trying to work out what truths Jimmy Savile was speaking to power.
@pieist Surely his main truth for many years was ‘I’ve got dirt on you, or will taint you by association, don’t interfere with me’. It kept him safe (and a lot of kids unsafe) through the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, the 00s, until he was safely dead.
On the firm historical basis of the abuser’s circle of other abusers who stick up for them, I’d be sending the cops round to Fox, Robinson, Barrymore, Hopkins, Morgan, & Turner. Tate’s already going to trial.
