I think Morgan Freeman has worn out his welcome in the acting world. Time to retire.

This Me Too stuff is getting old.  99% of the allegations can't be proven and there is rarely, if ever, a crime such as rape.  What the H is" inappropriate behavior" anyway?

So what did Freeman do to make him a target?  He's not a conservative and should be the darling of Hollywood -- thus, immune to such accusations.  I'm thinking he must  have said or done something to tick off whoever is really behind this so-called movement.

Wasn't he the one that had an affair with his step-granddaughter or something like that?

He's issued an apology.

Thank God for that.  Now we can all get on with our lives.

Yes. No doubt he did say something non PC. It will come out sooner or
at the trial. Can't have citizens thinking on their own.

Although I watch few modern movies or tv shows, there seems to me to be some sort of movement underfoot by radical females to take over the entertainment industry and put male actors and entertainment moguls on a lesser plane.
There was this past week this statement signed by many Hollyweird female luminaries (many of whom I've never heard of) demanding equal pay and other bennies equivalent to males.
There was also the thing at the Oscars where Frances McDormand demanded special rights (inclusion riders) to select actors and other important movie people in her movies.
Apparently, Hollyweird females are trying to take over. They must feel many people prefer watching chick flicks over the usual, awful action flicks that are now churned out by the dozens.
I don't watch the miserable action flicks, and I certainly won't be watching virtue-signaling, liberal female-dominated flicks about their relationships and their feelings.
But it will be interesting to see how Hollyweird people devour each other and what transpires.

Some of those French actresses like Bridgette Bardot came out against the me-too movement. Some of these women as well, made their own choices, this is how it works. It might not be that they are totally helpless. Things shouldn't work that way necessarily, to get a good acting job but that might be reality.

The radical man-hating feminists are behind a lot of this.
 While nobody mourns the Harvey Weinsteins of the world getting their just desserts, the radical feminists would like to further poison the atmosphere between the sexes.  Their ultimate goal would be to make it a crime for a male to talk to a female without her first giving permission.
