Yesterday, Dylan Farrow—the adopted daughter of Woody Allen and Mia Farrow—published an account, on Nicholas Kristof’s New York Times blog, of the sexual abuse she says she suffered as a young girl at the hands of her famous father.

The post is moving and horrifying. And yet, the entirety of its premise is wrong—and in an important way. The piece is written as an open letter to the public, at whose feet Dylan Farrow lays blame for the continued adulation of her alleged abuser. She also calls out “Hollywood,” and in particular several actors who have worked with, or are friends with, Allen. One could hardly argue that the famous and the powerful aren’t given passes upon passes for every shade and shape of misbehavior. But that’s not what happened here. Someone is responsible for Dylan Farrow’s pain, but it is not the public.

2. The opinion piece is crap,

but some of the comments are outstanding.

3. Really? I thought the opinion piece was pretty good.

What are your objections to it?

4. I didn't see Dylan's letter

holding the public responsible. No where close. She was just expressing how most victims feel about their perp getting away with their horrendous actions.

The author could be another a-hole in denial, talking out her ignorant ass. There are so many when it comes to views on incest. Leaving the victim twisting in the wind and on her/his own.
