Watching it now. It's bad enough as a whole,but they had a segment on Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. The comments were infuriating...dismissive,minimising,victim blaming. Well they were both erratic,he had a bit of an alcohol problem, lots of derogatory comments towards her etc. Made me want to scream. And then the cherry on the cake "she got a hefty settlement that she donated to charity so everyone's a winner!". Really? Fucking really?

I had a friend say that amber had brought it in herself, his other girlfriends never complained about this.

Wanted to slap her. Also we are no longer friends.

Why are people even shocked that Depp is an abuser?

Male celebrity + huge sense of entitlement = abuser + plenty of leeway in the media
Female celebrity + victim of abuse = liar + gold digger + zero media leeway

Because that is what they are saying - a big payout makes up for emotional/verbal/physical abuse and that's the price women have to pay.

Rage inducing.
