Plenty of celebrities issued crazy statements in their efforts to defend director and rapist Roman Polanski but none went as far as author Gore Vidal did when he labeled Polanski's victim a "young hooker."
In an Oct. 28 interview with The Atlantic's John Meroney about a variety of topics, Vidal claimed he didn't "give a f---" about the Polanski case. "Look, am I going to sit and weep every time a young hooker feels as though she's been taken advantage of?"

I’m not even sure what Gore Vidal’s original claim to fame was. Hair dresser? Designer? Author? Seriously, I don’t even know.
She is fine with him being on the loose and is on record as saying he should be left alone. Why should I care what some liberal hack thinks of her? If the woman wants him to be left alone and presumably raping others, yeah, I'm fine with her being slandered.
It’s a shame WFB never beat the crap out of this guy...

As if he even knew what a naked woman looked like.
This is clearly a case of projection. Or is it envy?
He is a creepy aleistar crowley type fellow who should
be shunned. most in the msm know very little about him.
If he had served his two years back in the 1970’s, he would have been free and roaming for the last twenty years, so what is your point?
It’s not up to her, it’s up to the courts. She just wishes that she wouldn’t have to deal with this over and over.
Sorry that you can’t see her point of view and therefore it is fine with you to call her a “young hooker”.
I didn’t call her anything jerkwad.
I said "it is fine with you to call her a young hooker", not that you have called her that.
Just that it was fine with you for her to be called that.
A 13 year old girl who was drugged, raped and sodomized should never be called a "young hooker" is my point. You said that it was fine. And I'm the jerkwad.
