Yes, I've seen more people in the media pointing out the unilateralism and biasness of the HBO hit piece about WA than what they did with LN, probably you could count them with one hand. Besides hypocrisy, it must be racism on their part; however, it's not popular in the MSM or in the entertainment to side with WA either.

The western media are white supremacists pricks who choose to take sides based on the color of their skin or if that person in question suit their agenda.

I especially "like" it when it's the exact same journalist.

So I know almost nothing about these allegations, and I haven’t seen the documentary, doubt I will. But Streisand effect aside, what’s stopping Woody Allen from suing them for defamation if he hasn’t been legally convicted of these crimes?
I also wonder if this is why it isn’t open season on him as much, why the media isn’t rushing to convict him on the scale that they did for MJ. He can legally fight back. MJ cannot.

I guess in this case he should sue Mia/Dylan/Ronan, not the media/HBO, since they are "just" giving a platform to them, even if as one-sidedly as they do. But whether the claims by Mia/Dylan are true isn't HBO's responsibility, it is theirs. Who knows why Woody doesn't take legal action against them, but I can imagine it would be an uphill battle anyway. To find them liable for lying about him, he should be able to 100% prove it is a lie. And that's an impossible burden. When you think about it, this would basically reverse the burden of proof. He is the one accused and the allegations have never been proven true, but if he sued for defamation/lying it would flip the burden of proof and then he should have evidence that they are definitely lying and it definitely didn't happen which is basically having to prove a negative. Almost impossible.

He will be 86 this year. I bet he doesn't have the time neither the energy to fight in a civil suit for defamation knowing those take forever.
Mia's/Dylan's claims were taken seriously and investigated thoroughly concluding Dylan "recollections" of the alleged molestation were inconsistent and was more likely couched by her mother. In an ideal world, the Yale New Haven and Child Protection Services in New York reports would be enough to clear WA but even if he has white privilege and more support from the media compared to MJ, they still love to tear people down, that's why the Farrows haven't gone away.

Because everyone that has been alive for the past forty years or so and their mom have been pre-disposed to think that Michael Jackson is an awful human being, and the media continues to perpetuate that idea because it sells and they know it sells. Woody Allen has not been subject to that kind of criticism and negative press on that level for as long as MJ has.

^^ When the media paid six figures to people to lie about MJ you know that negative crap about MJ is just very profitable for the media. I don't think it's as profitable when it's about Woody Allen or others. They can say what they want about "justice" or the need to educate people about "grooming" and what not, but it's all smokescreen. It's about the profit it makes them. And slandering MJ, as big as he was, made a lot of profit. I also suspect it's not only about how big he was but also how different he was. There's something animalistic I feel behind how the media loves to gang up on MJ. IMO it's the same barbarian, primitive instinct as why people loved to burn witches. It's the need to gang up on who's different and burn and stone him or her. The media elite will never admit this to themselves because it makes them no better than those witch burners but it's there IMO. Some of the hate towards MJ on their part is so crazy irrational, that I can't explain in any other way.
Even in death they keep digging up his corpse to bash and trash him all over again. What public interest is there really to keep re-trying someone who's dead for more than a decade? And now Reed wants to make LN2 and Channel 4 wants to air it? The real social interest is zero. Whatever one might think of MJ, he's dead, dead, dead. What more do they want? The only explanation for this is the money they can make of his name and the barbaristic instinct I talked about above. Probably a mix of the two. I see nothing else.

The double standards are unbearable. Is this the infamous white privilege? Seriously.

I do wonder if shes doing it on purpose because she knows no one that "matters"will call her out on it. She knows she can do it and gets a kick out of having the power to do it and annoy the mj supporter base.surely no one can be that hypocritical and stupid without realising what they are doing.

I quite like some of his films but this is one where I'm quite unsure. I'm not gonna jump to his defence because I think his behaviour is quite horrible if true. I get that the documentary might be one sided but even without that it does not look good for him at all.

The double standards are mind-boggling,aren't they?
"Just hearing the prosecution".
Did she just parrot what we have been telling her about LN (and that she was so dismissive of when it was about MJ)?
